You want to review airspace procedures in the AIM. What does an AIM paragraph reference such as "3-2-3" tell you about where to look?

Choices

✓ Chapter 3, Section 2, paragraph 3correct
AIM paragraphs are numbered chapter-section-paragraph, so 3-2-3 is Chapter 3, Section 2, paragraph 3.
Page 323 of the manual
The number is a chapter-section-paragraph reference, not a page number.
The third revision of the second chapter
It is not a revision number; it is a structural paragraph reference.
Volume 3, part 2, article 3 of the CFR
This is an AIM reference, not a CFR citation.

Why

The AIM is organized into numbered chapters, sections, and paragraphs, cited as chapter-section-paragraph. A reference like 3-2-3 points to Chapter 3, Section 2, paragraph 3, and the table of contents helps locate it.
