What does the APL U/S note mean? Any help is greatly appreciated.
In other parts of the world the abbreviation "U/S" means unserviceable. I'm not familiar with the term APL, so someone please correct me if I'm not right, but I would interpret that abbreviation to mean "Approach Lights." Therefore, APL U/S would read as:

Approach Lights UnServicable.

Jepp charts use the terminology ALS out, but I think it has the same meaning as APL U/S.
