Not Kolb Related Question



This is for Pat or other UK based Kolbers, or anyone else who might know.



Is there a website similar to http://skyvector.com/ for VFR charts in the UK. I've googled for an hour and have not found anything like this for the UK. Plenty of sites that will sell you a paper chart but no on-line viewable site.

Hi Thom,

not that I know of.  The nearest I can find is one is a weather chart which 

marks VFR. Sorry.

Thanks, Pat. If you ever run across such a thing for UK or the rest of Europe, please let me know.



Looks like a marketing opportunity to me for some well funded computer geek. I think it would be as appreciated in all of the EU as much as SkyVector is in the USA.

Hi Thom,

I looked up your site. Looks pretty useful. Can you download charts for 

actual use ?

Pat,



I've not tried it but I think/guess/suppose you can do a standard "save as" to get the image onto your computer, after which I assume you can print as you see fit. Like most things in the modern world, to get the official chart you must buy them from approved vendors, many of which can be found on-line.

Thanks, John. 



There are only about 7 VFR charts for the UK so I might get them. My son-in-law is from Carlisle and I may be making a visit to France and the UK next year.
