NZFF

Howdy,

Anyone know if any (freeware) digital VNC's are available for New Zealand airspace?

I have almost a full set of the paper copies (now would be a good time to obtain them for free from your local areo club as a new set are soon to be published), but as I like to fly using FSMMoving Map, digital copies would be even better.

Or am I going to have to scan these monster sheets in and calibrate them meself?

I think scanning them would be your best option. If you're willing to fork out a few extra $$ you could talk to your local print shop and get them to do it. I'm not familiar with FSmoving map, however if the maps are in a standard image format (bitmap, jpeg etc), I'm sure the print shop could help you out.

I buy mine from here: http://www.downunderpilotshop.com.au/Ne ... p-333.html

Nice big poster size I can see why you would want a digital version or two!

Dorian ,
I have 5 sheets in A4 format broken down and editied from old NZ chart s i did years back , i used them last time 3 years back still appreared to get me to point to point .
I'll scan then if needed , also other sheets/page with NZbeacon fequenc'y really for VFR.

november copy of "computer pilot" has an article on exactly how to go about doing this - scanning and creating digital maps.
