Does anyone who uses this (or any other flight planning software) know where you can get hold of Raster charts of the UK to use with it? Jeppesen sell their 1:500,000 chart on a CD, but I'm not a fan of their charts (and they are very expensive), and would prefer CAA/ICAO/Military instead, preferably 1:250,000 (although 1:500,000 will do). Any ideas much appreciated!
I do have access to a huge scanner, so could potentially scan my own maps, but have absolutely no idea about raster software etc - has anyone else done this, or does anyone know which software you have to use? I am fairly sure that you cannot just import a map into Flitestar as a graphic, it has to be changed to some magical format...
Unfortunately, yet again, we live in the wrong country for flying... it's easy to get hold of charts for the US!
Thanks
