One thing I miss almost daily when using SD are the airports traffic circuits. I know about your problems with public organizations as Skyguide. But there is another way to success:



You already have your own vector based VFR airspace data. Why don’t you just integrate vector based traffic patterns of European airports? For example www.platzrunden.de has all European traffic patterns including approach sectors and entry circuits for Garmin GPS. There it’s very easy to join downwind, turn into base and final leg.



You have to vectorize it only once because traffic patterns change rarely. For the SD customers it would be an appreciated added value to your great software!





Thanks for your excellent product SD. I love it!

Hans

Hello,

yes I follow the arguments told by Bernhard.

It would be a pain to maintain the traffic circuit data for you. But it shoud be possible to build a interface for the airfield circuit data for example:
(airtraffic.txt file) in OpenAir-Format
*Moenchsheide
AC O
AN 11/29 * 1650ft * UL * MOGAS
AH 1650 ft
AL 750 m UL MOGAS

.....

That are some selfmade airport circuits from germany in OpenAir-Format.
Every user is responsible for correct data and maintanance of data. Only a interface and a description is nessesary.
I think it is a possible solution for you and some pilots that are very interesstet for that.
