I've got too much work this summer. Thanks for sorting out the charts for those going. I'm sure they'll appreciate it. -----Original Message----- From: David Feinstein Sent: Sat, 23 May 2009 12:33 pm Subject: TeamGrumman-List: Canadian charts for Red Deer I just ordered some Canadian charts from these guys in Toronto: http://www.fedmaps.com/aero_charts.htm Government prices, estimated delivery 7-10 days. Faster service is available (FedEx, Purolator) if you want it. But which charts? NavCanada's diagram shows where the charts are, but it's hard to tell the exact coverage. So I made a diagram of my own, and put it here: http://newlangsyne.com/etc/CanChartOverlay.gif The graphic quality is poor but the information is there. According to the Canada Flight Supplement (like our AFD), Red Deer is on BOTH the Calgary and Edmonton VNC (sectional) charts. ________________________________ Message 2 _____________________________________ Time: 02:00:42 PM PST US From: Gil Alexander Subject: Re: TeamGrumman-List: Canadian charts for Red Deer Note that if you are going further West (I am...:^) then the Vancouver charts (both Sectional and Terminal, or VNC and VTA, eh) are due to be re-issued in July 2009. http://www.navcanada.ca/NavCanada.asp?Content=ContentDefinitionFiles%5CPublications%5CAeronauticalInfoProducts%5CCharts%5CAeroCharts%5CListOfVFR.xml The Canadians don't seem to have a day of expiration, just a month when a new one is issued... I also found than my regular on-line chart supply house www.mypilotstore.com in Phoenix has the Canadian charts for $16.50 US each with no shipping charge. http://www.mypilotstore.com/MyPilotStore/ChartsCanada/ ...and should be quicker than getting stuff from the Canadian govt. As an aside, I personally find the Canadian charts much harder to read and interpret than the US ones. My co-pilot will need much stronger reading glasses to get the fine print....:^) Sorry to hear you are not going Gary, but we are planning a stop in Auburn on our way back from Vancouver. gil A >I just ordered some Canadian charts from these guys in Toronto: > http://www.fedmaps.com/aero_charts.htm >Government prices, estimated delivery 7-10 days.
