I have been running a scheduled process on the server every day to download the current NAT routings. I am still about a day off (since I'm missing when they are updated) but you can access them now from the pilot center, and download into NATPLOT.

Cheers!

Luke

Good idea Luke! That's one less site I have to go to to cross the pond.

Great Luke. I should be taking my 757 Test and flight video some time in the near future and that will come in handy. Thanks for all the great work...

That is a great feature you've added, and excatly like Matt said, one less website needed now for planing.

Hi Luke, don't know if this helps but the NAT's are updated 2 times a day. In the morning by Shannon Oceanic and in the afternoon by Gander.

Regards,

Tiago

Oceanic FIR publishes NAT tracks once a month for use when flying VATSIM. Shannon and Gander use the tracks when they are controlling. Go to http://www.vatsim-uk.org/ select Oceanic at the botton of the page for the current NAT tracks.

Of course, if you are realtime flying then you would need to choose the current updated NAT track.
