That is what I thought as well.

Find it kind of amusing that in the chapter of 2007 Instrument Flying Handbook (where it mentions the 10nm circle) that all the figures are a mix of both NACO charts and Jepp charts.
Question: Why not just pick one and go with it? I mean, if they can contract out the FSS to Lockheed, why not contract out charts to Jeppesen? Just a thought...
