The Air Space map can be entered into the instrument comfortably on the PC by use of the freebie
software program Flychart via PC-interface.
4.2.1 Air Space in OpenAir Format *.txt or *.fas
Flychart is appropriate to download Air Spaces in the so called OpenAir Format. On the Internet the Air
Spaces are normally made available as *.txt file, e.g. on
http://soaring.gahsys.com/SUA/
For Switzerland Air Spaces can be downloaded under http://www.flyland.ch directly in Flychart Format
*.fas. For Germany and Austria the website http://www.dfc-saar.de/ -> GPS Lufträume
is recommended.
Tip: create within the Flychart folder a new folder with the name Air Maps or Airspaces in order to
facilitate recovery and management of the Air Space files which had been downloaded.
Flytec/Bräuniger Air Spaces ending with *.txt or*.fas can be edited with any text editor, or very comfortably
with the Flychart Air Space editor. Start point and end point do not need to be identical. Start point and
