Charts in the real world, but some sim'ers use them as well. You can use the map function in FS to "simulate" a charge. You could also "cheat" by going to the airport using the create a flight option and having a look at the coords there (press Shift+z to cycle the display). I can't recall if FS2002 had a GPS or not. You could also use that.

Well, as accurate as FS is, sometimes there are errors in the scenery data.
