i realized that there are no transit routes displayed in the SD charts to cross the Airspace of Berne (LSZB) and Geneva (LSBB). these two airports have defined transit routes that they use to grant ctr crossings. A suggestion on how to display such a route would be to show it as a VFR route in SD.
i would appreciate  if you could somehow integrate these transit routes into your charts.

for your reference i have added two screenshots of the respective sections of our ICAO chart.  (my eyes start itching every time i have to look at these cluttered maps, us SD users are so spoiled Wink)

kind regards
Pascal

hi Tim
i just googled for official coordinates for these routes and guess what, i found another thread in this forum Smile here

it seems that there are no coordinates that define these routes  and they can be seen at least partially on the area charts of the respective airports which are georeferenced in SD, so i understand these routes can't and shouldn't be included in the skydemon charts..

VFR Routes in my opinion are silly anyway as with today’s  means of GPS Navigation, the chances of mid air collisions increase dramatically when everybody follows the exact same route but in VFR without proper traffic separation by an ATC.

‌what our swiss FOCA would need to do if they want these transit routes to be really useful is, they could publish VFR reporting points and then connect them to create such a route, that would be far clearer and would allow SD to incorporate that into your charts as well.

cheers
