This is a hugely wasteful thing to do, which is why there isn't a feature to do it automatically. We do have a feature that downloads all charts automatically for all airfields that are part of your route, which should be sufficient.

What about unplanned diversions? Why not let users decide for themselves if they find it useful or wasteful?

Maybe it would be sufficient to just include charts for airfields that are within a given time or distance frame from the planned route, just like NOTAMs are selected.

Thanks for this hint. As extra I also need to click download for Swiss/German VFR.

Since there is Checkbox to auto download charts it would be nice to download all plates but at least I have a workaround.

Thanks

Hi,

I would like to have all charts automatically downloaded to my tablet when I am on a WIFI. Currently only departure, destination and alternate are auto downloaded.

Thanks
