Classification of each TP is included at the end of each name.  Letter at end will be either: R, E, or U:
  R = Runway on sectional
  E = Emergency Landing area
  U = Unlandable area
  After the letter is a qualification number: 1, 2, or 3 is good,    7, 8, or 9 is bad.
Comments at end of line may include:
  Runway:
    Length in hundreds ( H for Hard or S for Soft surface) e.g."20H" means 2000 ft hard surface
    Surface: H=Hard (concrete/ asphalt/paved) S=Soft (gravel, sod or dirt)
    Width may be shown after length e.g. "25Hx90" 2500 long x 90 ft wide. Width sometimes is only the paved area, but other times it estimates width and it may contain obstructions

Notice about Landing Sites: INFO MAY NOT BE ACCURATE
Choice of landing sites is a pilot's personal responsibility.
The landing attribute "L" has been appended to a few of the control points that MAY have been landable in the past, but they may not be landable any longer.
Pilots must decide for themselves which control points may be landable for them, and then add or delete attributes as appropriate.
