Each link below produces an OpenAir file
(.txt) compatible with FlySkyHy,
XCTrack, XCSoar, and other XC apps.
Coordinates are written as DMS with cardinal direction; classes are
Q (Danger, fire), R (Restricted, NOTAM), and
W (Wave Window, landing guidance).
Situational awareness only — not for sole navigation. Wildfire and NOTAM data are pulled live from BC Wildfire Service / CWFIS / NAV CANADA / FAA TFR (tfr.faa.gov); landing guidance polygons are community-maintained. FlySkyHy keeps only one custom OpenAir file at a time — importing one file replaces any previously imported custom airspace.
Fetches NAV CANADA NOTAM polygons, wildfire 5 NM advisory no-fly polygons (same shapes as the website's red advisory rings — buffered hull or 5 NM disk per fire), and all enabled landing-guidance overlays — one OpenAir file with the same semantics as each section below.
NAV CANADA polygon NOTAMs (CFPS-derived) plus FAA
TFR polygons (USA) — wildfire / mil exercise /
skydiving / glider / UAV / CYR / training / general (Canada), and
regulatory TFR shapes (USA). Canada altitudes use F) /
G) where present; USA TFR exports use
GND .. UNLIM unless detail text is added later. Altitudes
(AH / AL) come from each NOTAM's
F) / G) lines; falls back to
GND .. UNLIM.
For every active fire (BC Wildfire Service for BC; CWFIS for the rest
of Canada): a 5 NM outward buffer of the published
perimeter, or a 5 NM geodesic disk for incidents with
no published outline. These are the
same red advisory rings shown on the website map. Class
Q (Danger) with GND .. UNLIM — fires with
status OUT are dropped.
Every enabled community landing-guidance overlay (from
CONFIG.noLandingOverlays), emitted as
AC W (Wave Window) so apps render them as informational
and don't alarm on entry. Use your XC app's per-class styling to make
them outline / shaded. Colours on the map: red = no landing, yellow =
restricted, green = OK to land.
How alarms behave — XCTrack / XCSoar / FlySkyHy will
alarm on Q and R by default, and treat
W as informational. Final behaviour depends on each
pilot's per-class settings on the device.
