Cartes Vac

VAC maps sources

For France and French territories, maps VAC (VFR), AD2 (DA International) ARRDEP (SID / STAR), IAC (IFR), SIV and HEL (helicopter) are available through the SIA website (https://www.sia.aviation-civile.gouv.fr/html/frameset_aip_fr.htm).

Note: VAC maps produced by the AIS is not projected. As a result, their display on a map projected is approximate. The idea is to prompt the eye under an integrated card.

The maps are downloaded in PDF format, but they will not be displayed directly into CartoFlightCE, due to lack of processing power and memory in such handsets.

VAC maps display in CartoFlightCE (new)

The PDF version of VAC maps are now directly usable in CartoFlightCE with the help of the free PDF viewer FoxItReader.

Just place the PDF VAC maps in a directory and CartoflightCE will load the the corresponding VAC map.
