This question has been asked before (2017), but I thought I’d post it again as perhaps it gains more traction.

When I print my briefing pack it’d be brilliant if I could print AIP that I pay and subscribe too instead of the SD plates. 
For me a briefing pack isn’t complete without a Print-out of these plates, as I always like to have paper copies with me - just in case.

C’mon alle you geniuses at SD, make this happen....please?

Many thanks!

We would disagree that it's a "huge negative point"; we seem to be doing ok despite what some view as an omission.

I'm not totally against including AIP and purchased third-party plates in briefing pack output, but I view it as something as a minefield, because what plates would we include? Surely not ALL plates that are available/downloaded for every airfield that is part of the configured route? We could allow the user to choose which ones are included, but by the time they've chosen they could have simply printed those plates themselves and kept them.

Hi Tim. We can agree to disagree, as all users have different flow when using an app.

I’m absolutely not knocking the app - it’s wonderful.
This is just a particular user pain that I feel could be bettered. I also understand effort vs impact issues that need to be taken into account, but this is standard part of product/feature evaluation.

It’s a shame that I rather feel resistance in this issue rather than willingness to genuinely engage.

At least perhaps add a text reminder that AIP plates can be downloaded elsewhere?

Thanks.
