No doubt one of the Three Stooges will be along to shoot me down but, I believe, that the 1:500,000 CAA chart actually has some legal standing i.e. you have a current chart, are caught overflying say, a prohibited area which hasn't been marked, you have a reasonable defence.

I don't believe such a luxury exists with the 1:250,000.

Cheers
