There are several abatement areas in Finland. Above is one example.

Missing two protection zones for industrial plants.

Nice to have feature Smile
-Visualize upper air sounding balloons mentioned in the previous link. Would be nice if wind direction is used to shade probability of area where it might be.
- route warnings about bird migration. See.

In a VFR FP - and that is what SD is about - you can not specify a crusing level other than VFR.


Where do you get this information? I certainly have files VFR flightplans giving a definite cruising altitude. Also, in some places I have been requested to enter my initial cruising altitude, no matter that I was flying VFR.

So it seems that different ATC units prefer things to be done differently.

In Denmark a VFR flightplan will be rejected if the level is other than VFR.

Here an extract from the Danish VFR Guide:

3. Completion of the flight plan item 15 in connection with VFR-flights within København FIR, the following specifications regarding level and positions apply:
- irrespective of which class of airspace a VFR flight is planned to fly in, the data element 'Cruising Level' in the flight plan item 15 is only to be completed by the letters 'VFR' and
- in the data element 'Route' in the flight plan item 15, specification of either commonly known geographical place names or ICAO Doc 7910 location indicators are allowed.

It might be different in other countries but at least in Sweden and Germany it is the same as in Denmark.
