Chart Object Maximum Display Scales

The following is a list of chart objects available on each of the themes, with the maximum chart scale at which each object displays on the enroute chart. The chart options can be accessed by viewing the Enroute Chart Properties dialog box, and some of them are listed in the Preference toolbar.

The number represents the scale in nautical miles on the enroute chart per square inch. For example, Airways display on all the themes at a maximum scale of 300 nautical miles per square inch. A higher number allows you to view the object further out. With a lower number, you will need to zoom in closer for the chart object to be accessible. Objects with a value of 100000 can be displayed when fully zoomed out, and objects with a value of zero (0) do not display with that particular theme.

The maximum scales work with FliteStar's decluttering mechanism to prevent the enroute chart from becoming too crowded with objects.

NOTE Depending on your version of FliteStar, some themes may not be available.
