    You will see them in the upper right corner of approach charts as well. It’s the last revision date in Julian – two-digit year followed by the day of the year. So, 02052 means the 52nd day of 2002, or February 21, 2002.

    There was nothing else listed in the takeoff minimums for KFME. So I assume it’s a diverse departure. 200 ft/nm and runway heading to 400 ft AGL. Does that sound correct?

    You’re correct it’s a diverse departure (since there is no route specified), but note there is indeed a slight restriction imposed, to be at or above 17 feet AGL when crossing the end of the runway.
