Airspace Files.Airspace
Files. UK Airspace files provided by Rory O'Conor are available
from
http://www.btinternet.com/~rory.oconor/airspace/ukair.zip.
These files contain not only forbidden airspace but airspace of a more
informative nature.
The restricted set of files previously available as
airspace.zip has now been consolidated into the Airspace Checking
Program which is still available, but remember these files represent a subset
of UK airspace and should not be used for Flight Planning or
Navigation.
Although these files can also be used by Cambridge Instrument's
Glide
Navigator II product, any use for Flight Planning or Navigation is
entirely at the user's risk. If this is not acceptable, then please do
not purchase.

These files have been updated to include changes up to 31sth March 2008. Airspace above FL195 is not included. |
Airspace is updated all the time. These files are not.

UK Ordnance Survey maps are constructed using the OSGB36 Geodetic Datum, but IGC requires all Flight Recorders to be set to the WGS84 Datum. A conversion program to convert between UK Ordnance Survey Grid References and Lat/Longs (both OSGB36 and WGS84 Datums) can be accessed from http://www.spsys.demon.co.uk/software/convert.zip (If you do not have a copy of PKZIP , click Here).
