Dear colleagues,

welcome to planningcharts.de!

The purpose of this website is to provide professional pilots with charts for long range operation, which contain summarized information from official documents as well as hints which are not published at all and are gathered during daily operation.

As all authors are active pilots of a major European carrier, the charts are more or less tailored to this operation, however they might be helpful to any pilot operating from Europe to various regions worldwide and vice versa.

However we have been approached by several users requesting other chart sectors (e.g. Pacific region), on which our present authors do not operate.

Therefore we would be very pleased, if you give us some advise for those charts.

We encourage all airline pilots to assist us in keeping the charts updated, thus providing the best information to everyone concerned with the operation of airplanes.

Please share your knowledge to improve aviation safety!!!

Knowing that we have plenty of FlightSim- or Virtual Airline-pilots as registered users we would like to let you know:

You are cordially invited to use the charts we provide for download.

We implemented a log-in to get access to the download area and to receive further detailed information.

This is for legal reasons as we have to ensure that you have read our terms & conditions.

During the registration process we ask some questions concerning your aviation background. We will not verify the data you insert, but we ask you to give correct answers. With your answer we can analyse how many users we have, which avaition background they have and for which operation our charts are used.

The data which are requested from you are for internal statistical use only and are treated confidentially.

There is a slight software bug next to the e-mail-address. Although not indicated on the form, your e-mail-address will also not be visible to others.

At the moment we continue to offer our charts free of charge for all users, but due to the tremendous demand we are facing, we are considering to charge a small user fee to cover our expenses for software and server. However we will donate 50% of the excess money to a foundation.

Wishing you always safe flights and happy landings on behalf of all authors
