Narrative:

The commercially provided airport diagram dated august 2010 for 5c1; boerne stage field in san antonio; tx depicts the taxiway as continuing all the way from the FBO to runway 35 and connects to the runway at the departure end. This is not accurate; the taxiway ends just south of the last buildings/hangars located on the southeast side of the field. It abruptly ends with no way to turn the aircraft around and could be a safety hazard for those on the taxiway and for those that are on runway 17 and think they have a taxiway to exit the runway. I think the chart needs to be revised to accurately depict the actual taxiway.
