Airfield charts to assist with taxi routes

@galeair146 Here’s a trick you can use. If you zoom in close enough on an airport when viewing the enroute map, it will load the moving map version of the taxi diagram, with you aircraft’s position overlaying the taxi diagram, complete with taxiway and gate identification info.

Example:


Now after doing that you can return to any other chart you need for the arrival, STARs, approach charts, etc etc. Then when you are safely on the ground and off the runway, simply close the open chart in the top corner, and the taxi diagram will be presented again.


This “Moving Map” diagram as we call it, is actually what we use in the real Jeppesen Flight Deck Pro app for taxi guidance, as opposed to the traditional looking chart page. A cool feature of Jepp FD Pro is it can automatically change to this screen when slowing through a set speed, such as 100kts, so we don’t even have to press anything.

I wonder if Navigraph Charts could read the FS data through SimLink and implement a similar feature?
