Narrative:

While flying from mwcr to clt; we noted a discrepancy in the location of kanex intersection. The mwcr kanex one departure 10-3E shows kanex as 56 DME on mwcr 047 degree radial (latitude/long N2000.0/W08043.2). However; the latin america high/low 4 chart shows kanex on the 045 degree radial; 56 DME (latitude/long) 1959.7N/08043.3W. This 2 degree disparity generates about a 2 mile difference in location. The aircraft database agrees with the high/low chart. We think that this would indicate a possible need to change the mwcr 10-3E kanex one departure fix to match the other charts; ie; change radial to 045 degrees and latitude/long as appropriate.

Title: AN A320 CREW NOTES A DIFFERENCE IN KANEX INTERSECTION POSITION BETWEEN LATIN AMERICA HIGH/LOW CHART AND MWCR 10-2; 10-3; AND 10-3A. ACFT DATABASE AGREES WITH CHART LAT/LONG N1959.7 W08043.3.

Narrative: WHILE FLYING FROM MWCR TO CLT; WE NOTED A DISCREPANCY IN THE LOCATION OF KANEX INTERSECTION. THE MWCR KANEX ONE DEP 10-3E SHOWS KANEX AS 56 DME ON MWCR 047 DEG RADIAL (LAT/LONG N2000.0/W08043.2). HOWEVER; THE LATIN AMERICA HIGH/LOW 4 CHART SHOWS KANEX ON THE 045 DEG RADIAL; 56 DME (LAT/LONG) 1959.7N/08043.3W. THIS 2 DEG DISPARITY GENERATES ABOUT A 2 MILE DIFFERENCE IN LOCATION. THE ACFT DATABASE AGREES WITH THE HIGH/LOW CHART. WE THINK THAT THIS WOULD INDICATE A POSSIBLE NEED TO CHANGE THE MWCR 10-3E KANEX ONE DEP FIX TO MATCH THE OTHER CHARTS; IE; CHANGE RADIAL TO 045 DEGS AND LAT/LONG AS APPROPRIATE.
