The point of view of SkyDemon compared to Air Navigation Pro is really great: a professional interface with just what you need, and all what you need.

But when such basic data is missing (restricted areas are everywhere in France...), that kills the model.

Would be great to be able to manually add missing information (collected from charts, or from other navigation systems), and why not share it (or at least keep it for the next time)

There is not always a frequency available to associated with a piece of airspace, and due to limited resources, we will not always be able to associate a frequency with restricted areas. Compared to controlled airspace and danger areas, it is much rarer to want to gain access to a restricted area (though France is somewhat different in this case).

Nowhere do we assert that we have frequency information for all pieces of airspace, or that our chart is a suitable replacement for a paper chart for all pilots.

There are still some zones (LFR93 in France) where the frequency is missing.

Pretty annoying, especially when the printout (the backup!) also doesn't display frequencies.

Some frequencies were missing from ATZ descriptions. We've updated them all now and you'll see this reflected in next Thursday's chart update. Thanks for bringing it to our attention.

I may be missing the point somewhere, but if I fly towards Wycombe ATZ, say, it pops up with the appropriate proximity warning but doesn't give me the tower frequency to request transit. That's not especally helpful - is it just that Wycombe frequency is missing or is it by design?
