Which data are documented on FAA forms 8260-3, 8260-4, 8260-5?

The key idea is that those FAA forms capture the Standard Instrument Approach Procedures and all the details needed to fly them. They are used to document the full instrument approach, including the type of approach (precision or non-precision), the approach course and segments, initial and final approach fixes, altitude constraints along each segment, and the minimums (visibility and ceilings) required for the procedure. They also include the missed‑approach procedure, the navigation aids and equipment required, any navigation/frequency information, and relevant notes or restrictions. This collection of data is specifically about how to execute instrument approaches at a given airport, not about enroute planning data or general aircraft performance data.
