Hi Tim,

Last week I flew to a south coast airfield and used one of my previously saved routes. All good.
On the way home I decided to take the scenic route home, so was not following my planned route home.
At a certain point I clicked on "Direct To" to return to my home airfield.
This route took me very close to the edge of the ATZ for Chichester/Goodwood.
I thought it would be a good idea to give them a call on the radio, so clicked on the "Radio" tab.
Their frequency wasn't listed but I did eventually find it by clicking on the map.

Would it be possible for the "Radio" tab to list en-route frequencies dynamically?
For example, list frequencies within, say, 5 NM either side of my current position of the "Go Direct To" track?
Thanks
Tony

SkyDemon issues frequency advice as part of an airspace warning, when we have a frequency attached to that piece of airspace.

We do not currently attach frequencies to French D/R/P areas because the AIP does not give a clear single frequency to those areas.

You make an interesting point that with some work, we could disregard the INFO services, look at the APP service, go through all our radio information for France to find the one with that callsign, and link the areas that way. It is unfortunate that AIP France does not give a simple frequency or at least an ICAO code for the unit providing the service, but there we are.

Hi, IMHO you can ignore D-zones for France, because other than in UK, for D-zones no special request/permission is needed. In F, they are for information only. Same applies for P-zones, There's nothing to communicate, you just have to stay out!
