An Introduction to the Standard Route Document

The Standard Route Document seems not to be as well known as it should be. This invaluable spreadsheet, produced by NATS, provides a comprehensive list of preferred IFR routes between the Airports of the UK and Ireland.

It's free to download and the information it contains can save hours of head-scratching at the flight-planning stage.

Even in these days of online flight-planning and filing, the SRD remains a phenomenal free resource, and in this video, we learn how to use it.
