I've looked at Dublin, Weston, Donegal - all with unknown surface, but the surface is in the AIP for each. For example, the Dublin surface is in 2.12 in the textual part of the AIP. Would also be great if the Irish AIP aerodrome charts which are full graphics could be geo-referenced (no point in doing the line drawing ones such as Donegal). Mind you - few are complicated enough for it to be much benefit!

Dublin is the obvious http://www.iaa.ie/safe_reg/iaip/Published%20Files/AIP%20Files/AD/Chart%20Files/EIDW/EI_AD_2_EIDW_24-1_en.pdf although I'm not sure how much GA it handles. Many of the others would be useful - but are coloured orange and blue so might not be clearly visible within the app. Eg Cork: http://www.iaa.ie/safe_reg/iaip/Published%20Files/AIP%20Files/AD/Chart%20Files/EICK/EI_AD_2_EICK_24-1_en.pdf

I agree the Dublin one would be georeferencable but unless there are a few others like Dublin, I couldn't justify switching this on really.
