Airport Map - Holding Points


Damo

Recommended Posts

Hi, 

 

I was wondering if it's possible to see / expose or even annotate taxiway holding areas on the airport maps. It's a shame I need to open up a PDF with 99% of the same information on just to see where the holding point is that VATSIM ATC is referencing.

Hi Damian,

I guess what you refer to is depending on the content of the underlying BGL file. EFB ground charts are based on the BGL file for a certain airport. The BGL data format specifies two holding points, 'hold short' and 'hold short ILS'.  If the designer takes the time to add this information to the BGL file then EFB can depict it, otherwise unfortunately not.
