Default CUB Format on soaringdata.info (mostly US)

I am pleased to announce that all US airspace information on soaringdata.info is now available in SeeYou CUB format, as well as the legacy formats including OpenAir, Tim Newport-Peace SUA, and Google Earth KMZ. This means:

- You can download Temporary Flight Restrictions in CUB format directly, without having to do a format conversion;

- You can download a CUB file containing up-to-date airspace info for the entire US for current charting cycle, without having to wait for periodic updates from Naviter; and

- You can run a bounded query and create your own CUB airspace file for a smaller area. Follow the link from the Airports tab, enter an airport code and radius, and select a companion airspace file in CUB format.


You can get to soaringdata.info at:

http://www.soaringdata.info

As always, everything on the site is free and freely redistributable.

Happy Downloading!

PS. This was my wintertime project, and it took a bit of work. I've shared the code with John Leibacher (who provided some helpful suggestions for improvements), and he should soon be able to support CUB airspace format more fully on the Soaring Turnpoint Exchange, worldwide.
