Hi,

just a note: I already received the plates for Egelsbach (EDFE) with the removed CTR (but with ATZ/RMZ/TMZ) via SD. But I believe, it does not change before March 31st or so...

PS: The (EDFE's) aerodrome plate georeferencing has gone.

Strangely, the DFS release the updates to the VFR AIP half-way through the AIRAC cycle. This is weird, and we have mentioned to them that it would be better if they aligned the VFR AIP with the change date for every other AIP in the world, but they are not keen to do this. Therefore we are faced with the situation that the VFR AIP updates will often either be early, or late.

I will look at re-georeferencing the aerodrome chart for EDFE.
