Bad Routes

Hello,
My Names is Chris Gutierrez I am the Lead of the Navigation Department Bremen on VATSIM.
We have found some Simbrief routes lately that do not suite our Operation well.
As an example, here is such route from EGLL to EDDH:
BPK Q295 SOMVA MAVAS ANDIK N873 JUIST P729 DHE L619 OSTOR T904 RIBSO
This route is used by Eurocontrol in reallife due to large active Military areas in North germany.
But we don’t use those areas for the most part, and this route is very unefficient.
Our preferred routing is: BPK Q295 SOMVA MAVAS ANDIK AKZOM M105 OPJOT T907 MUBZI T903 RIBSO

@SimBrief
Can you delete the routes via DHE?

Best regards
Chris Gutierrez

Hi Chris,

Sure, I’ve removed the DHE route for EGLL-EDDH. But it should be noted that users were only getting that route by default when they didn’t have the current AIRAC. Since the route you posted above is only valid on recent AIRAC cycles.

For users on the default AIRAC, I added this route into the database. It is relatively similar to the one you posted so it shouldn’t cause too many conflicts:

BPK Q295 SOMVA MAVAS ANDIK KEKIX N873 GRONY M105 EEL N125 REVLA T907 SORUN T903 RIBSO

Note that this route is only valid on AIRAC 2204 and earlier, users with the current AIRAC will have your preferred route suggested to them instead.

Best regards,
