Were can I get some good charts?

I can find some good ones for ground, but when it comes to SIDs/STARs I can never seem to find any. I was think about getting the Jeppesen one. But does anyone know any good places to get them.

And on IVAO they dont have lots of airports. Were I seem to fly.

For the UK, your best bet would be to register on [ the UK AIS website ]; it's free but you'll need to user MS Internet Exploiter to navigate the site.

They produce all the official UK charts, so you know the data will be top notch. For online flight, IVAO-GB is still working with the AIP from a while ago to be fair to the majority of pilots, but I'm starting to produce the update data for the current AIP round...

Be warned, the site layout is very confusing. If you are looking for UK aerodrome charts, they are in "Publications/UK AIP/The UK AIP Package" then "UK AIP/UK AIP/UK Aerodromes" (told you it was confusing...)

For the rest of the world, Jeppessen SimCharts is probably your best bet. I'm still using v2.0 (the data provided to MS for FS 2002) and that's good enough to get by in most situations...

I have an almost complete set of charts fo rthe UK and quite recent about march/april this year that I could sell if the price was right :)

I tend to only use the low level charts fo rthe UK and access SIDS/STARS over the Internet but many prefer the charts infront of them. They include such detail as gate numbers etc. for taxing to end of flight.
