== New Airport and Enroute Charts Available ==

The airport charts and enroute charts available for download via the Navigraph nDAC software have now been updated. The NOV07 revision has been replaced by the FEB08 revision (batch #11).

The number of airport charts are now 22,655 (previously 21,581), in a total of 1,183 airports (previously 1,147). The new and revised airport charts are distributed over 214 airports worldwide.

Out of these 214 revised airports, 19 have also been fully converted to the new airport chart format, specifically EEKA, EEKE, EEPU, EFLP, EFMA, EFSI, EGNC, EGPN, ENLI, ENSG, ESKK, ESOE, ESUP, FABL, FAUP, HHAS, LFSG, LOWW and LRIA. The airport chart format change was announced in an earlier newsletter, available at http://www.navigraph.com/. The airport chart manual for this new format is available here.

In addition to updating 42 enroute charts we have also added another two low altitude enroute charts for North America (NAM 05N/S) bringing the total amount of enroute charts available for download to 114. Notably all enroute charts in Africa, Central America, the Polar region have been updated, along with almost half (44%) of the European enroute chart coverage.

Next planned data revision is scheduled for end of May 2008.
