Airport Charts For Flight Simulator

Postby investdude » Sat May 06, 2023 2:13 pm

A site that I have found very useful over the years is now shut down. With FSCharts.com you could find an airport chart for just about any airport in the world. While containing minimal information it was usually enough for most Flight Simers' needs, eg. runways, frequencies, ILS, elevation, lat. & long. variation, you name it.

Does anyone know if its data was archived anywhere? I sure would like to be able to access it again.

Maybe that website can provide at least a part of the charts you're looking for:
https://www.airmate.aero/php//pdf_viewe ... ?code=LFMT
You'll have to edit the address to match to OCAI code of the airport you want, and then at the bottom of the page you will see some tabstrips to swtich between the various categories of data available. Sometimes a dropdown lisbox appears as well. It can be a little bit confusing but once you're used to it, it's quite nice (and free).

On a side note, there is a freeware planning tool named "Carto+" which was made by a member of one of the french FS forums.
That little tool let's you enter a departure and a destination airport, and then opens the webpages containing the charts for both airports, the webpages containing the weather data for both airports, and a final webpage containing a basic IFR route to enter into your FMC (with a map).

The webpage is in French but you should be able to translate it easilly with Chrome or whatever translation plugin in your navigator:

(all the needed info and download link are in the very first post).
