Steps

  1. Download the current AC directly from faa.gov (freely public, no paywall) — AC 150/5340-1M consolidated with Change 1 dated December 23, 2020, plus a June 2025 errata correcting two metric-conversion typos in the appendix figures (Figure A-6: 0.06 m corrected to 0.6 m; Figure A-27: 0.09 m corrected to 0.9 m).
  2. Confirm which marking type applies (runway, taxiway, apron, hold-position) to the specific striping scope.
  3. Extract required paint colors (e.g., white for runway markings, yellow for taxiway/hold markings) and dimensions for the applicable marking type.
  4. Confirm glass-bead/reflectivity requirements if night operations apply.
  5. Check the airport's approved Airport Layout Plan or the local FAA Airports District Office for any airport-specific deviations before finalizing the plan.
