F Group: Forum Members Posts: 6, Visits: 6	Hey all, Due to this catastrophic flood in western Germany, DFS has published a NOTAM for a temporary ED-R. DFS - ED-R Bad Neuenahr I noticed, that SD is displaying temporary ED-R / NOTAMs always as a circle (first picture NOTAM1) and I got used to it - but: In fact the activated ED-R does have a different look/lateral borders (second picture NOTAM2). First, when looking into SD I assumed that all in and outbound flights to EDKB are prohibited, but they aren’t. I would find it stunning when in future SD updates the program may display the activated restrictions as they are laterally published. 🙂 So, no “circle” anymore! What do you think? Cheers Flo EDIT: hope this is the correct forum section O If not, please move it Edited 7/16/2021 6:57:45 PM by Flo

The coordinates are shown as yellow X when selecting the NOTAM, but the ED-R itself is still shown as a circle. It’s not clear for anyone at all, at the moment. Please fix this issue as soon as possible. Other apps show the information correct!

But anyway... should be implemented^^ I do not have brain capacity in flight to draw imaginary straight lines to identifiy ED-R boundaries

In the meantime, you've got the full circle of influence and the tools to visualise its extent yourself, with all coordinates being hyperlinks and also drawn as crosses when you "view on map".
