Default Replacement for DAFIF Airspace Data

2KA,

I'm about to announce a web page that converts FAA National Flight
Database (NFD) files into both of the airspace formats you describe
(Tim Newport-Peace and OpenAir(tm)). It also provides a KML version
for viewing the airspace in 3D with Google Earth.

I'm not familiar with the NASR files. The NFD is subscription only,
and it is because of FAA requirements for maintaining the subscription
that I'm charging for it on my webpage ($20/year).

Users will be able to provide a Cambridge-formatted turnpoint with
which to specify their area of interest, or provide latitudes &
longitudes for the bounding rectangle.

Look for the announcement in a few days.

Ted,

Your website sounds really great -- I'll subscribe for sure. I think
I'll still go ahead with my project in the interest of providing
something portable and open source. I'll be interested to compare the
results.

Thanks to both of you !

I've got John Leibacher an ILEC SN10 conversion utility that
runs on his computer (replacing our less-than-reliable SOAP
implementation). This plus your efforts should yield better
NDB's on his web site !

Thanks again,
Best Regards, Dave "YO"

Dave,

My web site will be announced sometime today.

If someone can send me a specification for the NDB format, I can add
it to the supported formats.

Hi Guys - See my website for updated resources on ILEC SN10.
Under the "airspace" section, you'll find NDB format information
and all of the gory info about converting TNP to NDB as required
for SN10...
Enjoy,
Best Regards, Dave

Thanks Dave. I'd tabled the notion of producing NDB output since
learning there are tools to convert from TNP. Nothing left to do
there
