The reason that the charts are not displaying some of these errors are because they are wrong.

L10 just south of the route near Cosford from 4,500' [v. small part]
- L8 north of the route, ~10nm north of Cosford
- M605 from 4,500', starting ~10nm on ~hdg 340 from TNT: the route infringes this
- L603 just to the west of the route partly coinciding with L975

The chart showing the NE corner of L10 near the village of Little Haywood-Colwich is incorrect. It is a very small "fillet" but never the less is wrong.

I can't find any problem with L8 as there is other airspace at a lower level than the airway.

M605 is wrong on the charts. The triangle of M605 with a lower level of 4500AMSL sits inside Daventry CTA2 with a lower level of 5500AMSL.

L603 appears to be correct.

The UK charts will only show the lowest sections of airspace, whereas Skydemon Lite has got every airspace listed in its entirety and layers it onto the map so it doesn't compare to the chart.

I will refer L10 & M605 to NATs and will post their response when received.
