Blasphemy...still no luck with my real-world FAA taxiway charts. (I don't know what some of the markings are.) I'm sure that some of you might think this belongs in the "Real Aviation" category, but I'm using the charts for Sim use, hence it's placement here.
Do any of you use real world charts, and if so, can you help me decode some of the numbers? I'll repost them if someone thinks they can help.

The chart I'm using as an example is for LAX:
http://www.aopa.org/images/asf/taxi/00237AD.pdf
These numbers appear in the bottom-left quadrant of the map, and they read:
Rwy 6R ldg 9954'
Rwy 25R ldg 11,134'
RWYS 6L-24R, 6R-24L, and 7R-25L
S175, T225, ST175, TT400, DDT900
RWY 7L-25R
S175, T225, ST175, TT210, DDT900
I thought at first that the first set of numbers (ldg 9954') was the runway length, but the chart shows that runway to be 10,285x150
And the second set...I've got no idea what those are.
Thanks!

Thanks to everyone for your prompt assistance, as usual.

That is right because each runway in this case (and with most airports) has a displaced threshold, you have 10,285 feet to take-off from, but only 9,954 feet to land on because of the displaced threshold(s). As far as the other information... I haven't really the time to look into it, but when I saw the first(1st) set of numbers... I knew instantly.
LDG refers to the available landing distance.

Don't look it at like, you are here to meet new people and have fun... As stars go, I have more stars now than I ever received in all my years of school.
