Filser LX20 turnpoint list

[Croft Brown]

Does any body have the BGA UK turnpoit list in .da4
format, or do you know where I can download it. The
SAA site does not have that format available. Thanks.

[Frederic FUCHS]

Have you try : http://acro.harvard.edu/SOARING/JL/TP ?

You didn't look very hard did you?

They appear to be divided by region, presumably because
the whole database won't fit a Filser.

I would recommend using TP Select.
This will produce an extract of the 800 odd BGA waypoints
in a suitable size (less than 500 for LX)
and in almost any format.

That is absolutely correct. There is a note about this on the BGA
Waypoint Web page (http://www.spsys.demon.co.uk/turningpoints.htm), but
every year it catches someone out.

Incidentally, the Midlands, Northern and Scotland files have been
updates in the last week, but the is because Four Counties have moved
from Syerston to Barkston Heath. If you don't fly from Barkston Heath,
this shouldn't affect you.

UPDATE:

As a number of people have encountered the same problem, the site has
been changed and when the is not sufficient space in the manufacturer's
format for all the waypoints, the download symbol with a large red cross
over it displayed. If this happens for the format you want, go to a
regional list.
