VFR Planner
VFR planner combining PANSA AUP data, static airspace, METAR/TAF aviation weather from IMGW, and simple airport-to-airport route analysis. The tool is for planning and support only.
Legend
The position dot is for map orientation only. It is not aviation navigation or a source for operational decisions.
Flight route
Add intermediate airports with + on each segment. Custom coordinates, start, destination and library - from the menu when you click the map. At least two valid route points.
Route legs (+ airport between points, − removes intermediate; order: arrows)
Return to the same airport - destination field is hidden.
Route analysis
Supporting material only - verify AIP, NOTAM and AUP in official sources before flight.
Select departure and destination airports - once the route is complete, zones, weather and airports along the route update automatically.
VFR Planner for airspace and weather analysis
The VFR Planner combines AUP-activated zone data with aviation weather to give a more practical picture of general aviation flight planning than a zone map alone. You can choose departure and destination airports, check weather along the route, view en-route airports and see which airspace may matter for your flight.
METAR, TAF and zones on one map
Combining METAR/TAF weather with the airport database and PANSA data helps you assess VFR flight risk faster. It is especially useful when choosing alternates, planning cross-country training and assessing whether your planned altitude and direct route need closer look at controlled airspace or temporary zones.
Frequently asked questions
What is the VFR Planner?
It is a tool that combines the PANSA airspace map (AUP and static zones) with METAR/TAF aviation weather and simple airport-to-airport route analysis. It is used for VFR flight planning in Poland.
Where do the zone data come from?
The AUP layer (TRA, TSA, MRT reservations, etc.) is fetched from the official PANSA service (airspace.pansa.pl). Static airspace (MTMA, ADIZ, etc.) is sometimes “in preparation” at PANSA; when their API returns an empty list, PilotHub shows a cached snapshot from an earlier publication. Weather data comes from IMGW.
Does route analysis consider altitude?
Yes. With a planned altitude in feet, we include zones whose vertical band includes that level (or the per-leg altitude if set). Horizontally, zones within about 8 NM of the route centreline count as well - alongside your track, not only those crossing the drawn line.
How does route analysis work?
Set departure and destination (airports from the list or custom points from the map-click menu), optional intermediate airports with +, default altitude and flight time window - route analysis refreshes automatically whenever you change something. You will see legs, a schematic altitude profile, zones, NOTAMs and weather along the route.
Can I rely on the planner for flight planning?
The planner is for support and planning only. Before flight, always check official AIP, NOTAMs and current AUP in PANSA sources.
