This is my annual request that Class B, C, D altitudes be displayed (selectable layer?) in Vector Mode. The one-tap method was a huge improvement but a selectable, constant depiction would be ideal.

Thanks

I second that request, and add that the lower/upper altitudes also be dsipalayed for Prohibitted, Restricted and MOAs

Agreed.  This is a good idea.  It should also be pilot selectable to turn this on and off.  Some IFR guys might not care.  Furthermore, the IFR guys might only want the outer limit of the Class B, C, D airspace displayed.

I doubt many IFR pilots would use vector charts.  I would not if flying IFR.

I don't know a single professional pilot who prefers anything other than vector charts. Jepp FD Pro is only vector charts with no standard Hi/Low Enroute chart. That's the FAA approved charting "document" for most of the airlines. They all fly IFR.

 

I'll concede that 150 KTAS or less makes the Enroute chart more usable. If you're doing 200+ KTAS you end up zoomed out more and the chart is less usable.
