Michael Tumbi 1023452 Posted August 22, 2007 at 12:13 PM Posted August 22, 2007 at 12:13 PM I have been downloading some SID/STAR charts from AirServices Australia's Web Site, but cannot find any en-route charts which show airways etc. Can anyone please advise where I can get these? Thanks ... Michael Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dominic Manning 811381 Posted August 22, 2007 at 11:40 PM Posted August 22, 2007 at 11:40 PM They are not avalible online as yet. I belive some VTC's are online, but are in 3D form (so you can see the airspace steps from all angles) and not able to printed as "charts". You can however obtain old charts from your local aviation community. Ask the local flying school or charter operator for the outdated charts. Private pilots may also have some charts. Now sure when the next update comes thru, but they occur every 5-6 months. In anycase, it's best if you hunt around now and ask for them. Some may have kept the old copies and in the very least they'll know to not throw them out at the next update. In the mean time, open VRC or ASRC with the Aust sector files, you can view the airways with them. Not perfect, but better then nothing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael Tumbi 1023452 Posted August 23, 2007 at 07:13 AM Author Posted August 23, 2007 at 07:13 AM Thank you very much Dominic for the great reply. I am new to all this but I did download ASRC the other day. I have yet to install it, so guess what I will be doing this evening? If all else fails, I'll go see how much it costs to buy some new charts. Thanks again Dominic... Michael Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matthew Dorahy Posted August 24, 2007 at 12:53 AM Posted August 24, 2007 at 12:53 AM Michael, give ASRC a miss and get VRC from www.metacraft.com/vrc . Its newer and has more features. You'll need the sector files for Australia from VATPAC at http://www.vatpac.org/sectors/ Matt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dominic Manning 811381 Posted August 25, 2007 at 06:22 AM Posted August 25, 2007 at 06:22 AM Plus VRC has the TAAATS display (the Aust radar system). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
