more or less similar and that’s the reason of concentrated description. Basic page is graphic page where you
will find initial navigation data and also graphic display which includes airspace data.
Note!
The graphic is oriented
track up
, so the glider symbol is stable and the map is moving.

** MC which is set by pilot and theoretic speed to fly figure relating
to the MC value set.
