At last - a 1 millionth VFR chart

Jeppesen are promising one later this month:

VFR flights within France, Belgium and Switzerland.
This 1:1.000.000 Chart has been specifically designed for flight planning purposes. The coverage includes France, Switzerland, Belgium (list of restricted and prohibited areas included for these countries). The following border areas are also depicted on the chart: south of England, west of Germany, Spanish side of the Pyrenees and the region west of Milan. The information on this chart is based on our existing VFR+GPS chart series (1:500.000).

Am I alone in thinking that, on a long trip with radio nav, a GPS and good VMC, its much nicer to have fewer charts and less re-folding. I used to use the old french IGN millionth scale. It'll be interesting to see how good this is and if it catches on
