As a pilot in Ireland, I do find the SkyDemon mapping very good. However, the CTA boundary line for Dublin does not appear on the mapping. This line runs from the Scottish FIR to the London FIR and boarders the Shannon CTA boundary. Could this be put on the maps?

Hi Tim,

I would not normally fly that high, so that must explain why it is does not appear on the map. Can this be amended so that it does appear as it is a handy reference line for flying cross country as the Dublin ATC controllers always us it as a "report zone boundary".

Thanks

Don

Don,

You can overwrite the default values in the menu Mapping | Map Layers, then scroll down to 'When flying' and 'When planning'. There you can hide features (e. g. airspaces). By default the item 'When flying hide features higher than x,xxx ft above' is set to 3,000. This means, airspaces with lower boundaries of 7,500 ft are not shown if you fly at 4,500 ft or below (3,000 ft or more below that airspace).
Just set this value to 10,000 and you always should see the boundary, whichever altitude you're flying.

Hi Eric,

Made the change as you suggested and on the planning map the airspace appears, however it does not appear on the Skydemon unit when sync'd. Any suggestions?

Thanks
