SafeTaxi information appears in cyan and yellow text. The EFFECTIVE date appears in cyan when data is
current and in yellow when the current date is before the effective date. The EXPIRES date appears in cyan
when data is current and in yellow when expired (Figures 8-18 and 8-19). NOT AVAILABLE appears in cyan
in the REGION field if SafeTaxi data is not available on the database card (Figure 8-19). An expired SafeTaxi
