It distinguishes airport services and airspace information, including Class B, Class C, Class D, and related altitude guidance, while warning that the chart is not sterile from other traffic. The chart includes operating rules and pilot/equipment requirements for Class B airspace, along with key cautions about congestion, communications, and unmanned aircraft approval considerations.
