The Drone Maps out of sync

I was looking at The Drone Map and there is a difference between the desktop shortcut and the website. I’ve refreshed the desktop shortcut but it’s made no difference.

The shaded grey area says …

I was just a bit confused as to why there would a difference really.

Hi Barry

You’re comparing the FPV UK examiner map in your FPV UK account, with thedronemap.com - our fully featured drone airspace and hazard map.

The former is where you go to contact an examiner or mentor, the latter is where you go to check airspace and hazards before flying.

All the best

Simon

TheDroneMap.com (on your phone and on is our airspace and hazard map.

Ah okay. Thank you Simon that’s cleared it up. Have a nice weekend.

You will notice that on the examiner map EGD218D FAIRFORD says:

Lower limit: FL200

That means its lower limit is 20,000 FT.

On thedronemap.com we don’t show it, because it is irrelevant to our members flying drones below 400 FT.

At some point in the not-too-distant future we will merge the two maps together somehow.

Ah that would explain it. Thank you for the information Simon.
