RVR minima calculations

Thank you Timothy amd Aero Plus

France

@Timothy thanks for the steer on Navigraph – looks a great app and about £75 for chart access for the year – but it seems to have caveats for sim use only? Is the actual chart data valid do you know? Many thanks

Now retired from forums best wishes

The charts are the same and updsted per airac cycle. Officially for sim use inky, therefore the low price.There is no difference beywewn these charts and the Jepp plates you would otherwise buy.

The only disadvantage is that you cannot get access in flight, so you have to PDF, JPG or print the ones you know you want, then use AIP for unplanned diversions.

But, as far as I can tell, they are 100% the same as a worldwide subscription to Jepp.

They say you need internet access. Does this mean they are all online, and you would have to print off individual pages to PDFs and join them up if you wanted a whole-airport PDF (like printing from Ipad Flitedeck)?

Frustratingly, yes. You can select them all with Ctrl-A, but then when you press print, you only get one sheet.

I tend to screengrab, paste into Word, then save as PDF, but it’s hamfisted.

Navigraph is strictly from hunger, but if you don’t want to pay a fortune, and are willing to put up with a bit of frustration, it’s very good value.

Well, that sort of website could be scripted to grab them all, and produce per-airport PDFs, but that is a fair bit of work to write the code, and the owner of the server could easily detect bulk downloads.

And not fair use, or ethical.
