Hi guys,

We are always looking to improve our charts and the addition of VRPs has been something that we implement when it is called for. I am putting Swiss VRPs into my "things to do" pile and I will investigate the Swiss AIP to harvest the data.

Feel free to private message me to get details of my progress if you wish.

Well, it seems that only Switzerland is concerned by the lack of VRP.

VRP seem to be correctly depicted around French airports with CTRs. However, BASEL is a French airport (LFSB) but has no VRP.

Strasbourg has them.....

I don't understand and would really appreciate to know SD's  staff opinion.

Thanks

Andrea

I found the same issue with the reporting points at the southern end of the Rhone Valley; assumed it was the settings I had used.

Hallo everybody,

I am using SkyDemon PC-based Planner for the first time in order to see if it matches its reputation when compared to other PC-based planning softwares.

I will soon fly VFR from France (Albertville LFKA)  to Switzerland (BASEL - LFSB) and I notice that the charts (or the database) don't consider the mandatory VFR reporting points a pilot must overfly or report when entering a controlled airspace.

This points are indicated on any official chart, including ICAO and JEPPESEN VFR.

Is there any option I still have to tick or does the database simply not include these fundamental points?

Some examples....

BERN CTR has the following reporting points: SB, RI, S, Z, H, HE, HW, W, E, SN, etc etc

BASEL CTR has:  S, WB, E, NE, EH, N, etc etc

I would be happy to read your reply / opinion on this.

Thanks

Andrea
