Often ATC want for postion reports something like: Report xxxxxx. They only require these reports from cities listed on the ICAO chart, But very often this cities are not shown in Skydemon. Thats a serious problem... Could you implement the same cities from the ICAO chart in Skydemon please?

This is something we are looking in to. It is only an issue in Switzerland, because only in Switzerland do ATC insist on using non-aeronautical points as reporting points and assuming everybody is using one particular paper chart. Everywhere else a proper reporting point such as a VRP would be used.

Ob‌viously, reverse engineering the Swiss ICAO chart to get all the town names off it is not something we are keen to do, so we are making enquiries with Skyguide.‌
