SA's

SAs — saved local map layer

SA's are your own saved landing knowledge, separate from national BBAC SAs, and automatically show as subtle green/red 200m rings on the Drift Map.

National SAs

Optional pilot-uploaded national SA overlay. This app does not supply or verify national SAs — use the latest official file for your own flight planning.

No national SA file loaded.

Share / merge Personal SAs

Export creates a small local Personal SA file that another pilot can import. Import merges SAs into this device and keeps the Drift Map layer updated.

Ready to export or merge saved SAs.
