I'm just going to quote myself here.
Anti-aircraft markers already exist. You cannot reliably place a 'circle' saying 'This is where the danger ends'. Because it doesn't, and that's not true. If anything it would be a menace to chopper pilots, not a help. Common sense and the current map AA marker are fine. A huge red circle (transparent or not) is misleading and is NOT something I want cluttering up my map when I'm flying. Period.
If anyone can come up with a reasonable argument to counter what I have said, I'll fold.
