Usually delivered by speed services within a couple days. WAY cheaper than the shops..... Also available digital format to use with any of the GPS mapping software available. I use Ozieplorer, but you need huge memory as aome of the maps are as big as 50MB. The AERONAUTICAL CHART - PWV region (scale 1:250 000) is very nice as it has much more useful detail than the 1:500 or 1:1000 maps....

Were you going? :wink:
