Airspace information on map screen

Post by staufferm »

I took a flight to Little Rock, AR from Shelbyville, TN the other day. When approaching a MOA the map page would not allow me to select the MOA to see the airspace information (push right hand knob and rotate to select). I could select Navaids, airports, and just about everything else except for the MOA's airspace. I was not going to penetrate it (it wasn't yellow) but I did want to see what the floor and ceiling were. Also, the floor and ceiling was not shown on the screen until AFTER I was through the MOA.

I also had the same problem with the Memphis airspace.

I have ver 8g. I have the most recent map database. The map was set to 35 NM range. In the set up I have show airspace set to 100 nm.

Any suggestions?

Could you see the entire MOA on the screen? if not the "grab point" for the airspace may have been off the edge of the screen and the pointer couldnt see it to get the info on the screen. Same with the Memphis airspace.
All the airspaces have a spot that is the "fix" for the airspace. If the "fix" point is not on the screen you cant get the details.
