Hello,
In Italy, as you know, we have a cluttered situations.....and to get rid of traffic, sometime, we need to fly higher inside the CTA above the Golf area and we need to know the frequency of the responsible "Control".
Could you insert these freq on the "details" of each CTA so when I tap on the map I see the "vertical limits" and I can read next to the "Ident" the freq  to contact ?

Regarding the FMC, you already answer to me, but recently we have discuss this issue with others pilots and we need to see the boundary of these area when we tap on the screen.
The information on the "Flight Plan" is not sufficient.
Is possible to include on the "Navigation or Planning Options" or in the Map Filters the option "FMC Yes or No"  as for others airspace ? like "Class E", "Mil ATZ" or "Other Local Airspace" ? 
The FMC area are only 1 in the Roma Fir, 4 on the Milano FIR, is really a problem for you to depict these area so the boundary will appear with the info when we tap the screen ?

Normally we associated a frequency with a piece of controlled airspace when the AIP lists one. Looking at AIP Italy, it does not do this, which is likely the reason they are not shown. For example, Padova CTA simply lists Padova ACC as the controlling authority, but there are many different frequencies listed for Padova ACC.

In regards to the FMC question, we currently cannot show the areas unless they are TMZs. I do not believe they are TMZs so at present there isn't an option to show them.

OK for the freq of the CTA, I agree.

Regarding the TMZ, all the FIR in Italy are TMZ, the FMC area is G class and TMZ.
Outside the FMC area the squawk is 7000 and compulsory, but FIS contact not.
The only difference between G and G/FMC is the Squawk code, if you do not desire to call the FIS that code represent: <I'm listening you, at the moment I do not need any informations, but if you need me, call me>.
That's why we need to see these area on the map.
This is typical for VFR and ULM that stay away congested area, do not need a clearance or chatting to a busy FIC/FIS.

Regarding the FMC area, I remember that a few months ago it was possible to tap the map and to see the FMC with the yellow border. This was very helpfull for a planning.
