I may be misunderstanding something but I think the airspace data associated with French airways is missing.

French airways are defined as class E from base to FL115, class D above. Width 5 nm each side of centreline. See LF ENR 3.0 para 1.3.

Without it there are oddities in the TMA airspace data. For example the little triangular fillet of Paris TMA between DPE and VEULE is actually the filler between M605, L612 and R50. In fact, all the airspace in the area is class E with base FL65, and the triangular area is the only bit not within 5 nm of an airway c/l.

I may have miss understood but it is worth pointing out that the Class E airways are for use by VFR traffic and can be used 'VFR on top' provided the destination airfield is clear at the time of take off. These airways are shown on the SIA 1:100000 charts. So they are very relevant for VFR use. All this info is in the SIA 'Documents VFR' chart and info pack.
