Geo-referenced approach plates question

This may be a dumb question, but, are the approach plates geo-referenced if I have the VFR subscription?
I only ask this because it seems strange they would even be included in the VFR subscription. My aircraft does not show up on them and they are outlined in red.
Airport diagrams are green outline and show me.
Just curious.
Thanks, John

Re: Geo-referenced approach plates question

Every iFly ships with a full compliment of VFR and IFR databases, plates, diagrams and maps. If you get the VFR subscription will not be able to download the latest plates or low-enroute charts. However you will be able to download georeferenced airport diagrams.

Good question.

Re: Geo-referenced approach plates question

Thank you sir. That's what I suspected. I really like this unit, and I've been thru a Bendix King AV8OR and Lowrance 2000C.
It's simple to use, great price and just the right size between B/K, Garmin Aera and too big iPad.
Keep up the good work and looking forward to future updates.
