JEPPESEN HAS enhanced its visual-flight-rules/global-positioning-system navigation charts for six European countries, as part of an initiative to create standard formats across the region and help flight planning.

Charts for Austria, Belgium, Germany, Luxembourg, the Netherlands and Switzerland have been enhanced in the run-up to changes in border-crossing regulations. "Many navigation charts in use throughout Europe are produced by various countries, each of which uses a different standard," says Thomas Wede, director of marketing and services at Jeppesen.
