New VFR 1:250,000 aeronautical charts have been completed
15 February 2008: New VFR 1:250,000 aeronautical charts have been completed. They have been divided into 4 quadrant charts which will consist of an East/West back to back and a North/South back to back. They will be available to purchase at the end of February 2008. No price has yet been set and they will be produced in both laminate and non-laminated versions. The purchaser can buy either version but will get four charts on two sheets of paper covering the Shannon FIR in one plastic sleeve.
Be advised that the aeronautical information is only provided for the Shannon FIR and not for the Scottish FIR. This information, as portrayed before, will be available on the new ICAO 1:500,000 chart which will be produced shortly by the Operations Division of the IAA. An email address, vfrchart@iaa.ie will continue to be available for feedback from users so that the charts can be improved upon. The charts are scheduled to be updated on an annual basis.
More information on exact pricing, release date and where they may be purchased will be posted shortly on this website.
