Does anyone know where I could find charts for St. Barts? Does St. Barts have a tower in real life? I noticed when I landed there in FS9 that I had to use a CTAF. If the real St. Barts has a tower can I add one using AFCAD?Thanks for your help!Airbus

Howdy Airbus,Usually available thru the Service de l'Information Aeronautique, but they appear to have pulled the charts. Try this instead: http://www.tradewind.org/TCA/files/stbarthelemytffj.pdf (right click link and Save Target As ... ). However, I don't think this is the latest map since the recent rway upgrade.Hope this is of some small assistance.

You take off and land only in one direction,small aircraft only,you have to have a special landing permit to do so. Unless things have changed since the runway improvement there is no tower,you still use the CTAF which is 118.45. And...If I remember right the runway and airport are off quite a bit in FS9 from where they should be positioned on the island,I'd have to check again.Davidhttp://www.st-barths.com/editorials/airport_repair04.html
