That is not the same thing as the notified area for a given FIS. If you bring up the ‘What’s here’ pop-up by ‘long touches’ on the SD chart in the area you are talking about, you’ll see that the Zurich FIS area extends well into the Langen FIR. This will be reflected in the Virtual Radar when navigating. Does anybody have the Eurocontrol charts link? I‘ll be going to the region soon and my understanding so far was that Zurich FIR extends to a large extend into German airspace.It’s in my posting above.Thx! I think I slowly get the situation and I guess it changed since I last flew there. Zurich FIS does indeed extend far into German airspace, but not as official extension of Zurich FIR? Cross checked with my IFR moving map and that shows indeed FIS boundaries, not FIR. Odd and I never noticed that before. Will Skydemon show the Zurich to Langen FIS transition in virtual radar when flying?
