Fait par un tec’ograte

Peu convivial peu pratique bourré de buggy app de fonctionnaires

Super !

Pour consulter une VAC ou vérifier les infos une zone R sans devoir sortir le gros Complément aux cartes aéronautiques, Sofia fait parfaitement son job. Serait génial de pouvoir consulter les NOTAMS.

Manque de fonctionnalités

Les paramètres des cartes et même la langue ne se sauvegardent pas.. il faut tout remettre à chaque fois

REX Négatif ! DANGEREUX

Nous avons changé de fréquence sur notre terrain et plusieurs pilotes extérieurs ont atterri avec l’ancienne fréquence. En cause la VAC sur l’application SofiaVac n’était pas à jour alors qu’elle l’était sur SDVFR… un comble et ne va pas dans le sens de la sécurité des vols !

Pas de RTBA
