Re: Waco charts

Thanks for the help everybody. Not bad, I guess I fly does a good job of shading the current MOA over the WAC. Now that I know what's up I can work around it. I am definitely liking the program so far. Very intuitive.

Weather briefing took me a while to figure out. Fingers crossed on a checklist option in future updates. But overall great job Developers, great app!

Re: Waco charts

Thanks for the kind words. That's on our shortlist of things we're trying to implement!

Re: Waco charts

Somewhat related. On my return trip from FLA to MA this past week I came across this VOR on V1 that I could not get the data box to display at any zoom level. I had to click on the waypoint to get the frequency (CVI 114.6). This airway is not obscure, so I wondered why anyone else hasn't reported this. The Toggle Low Enroute seam didn't change the view. Is there something wrong with my database, or do others see this as well?

Jeff, I see the data box normally in the Sectional and WAC views, but not in Vector:

Sectional

WAC

Vector

I made the three screenshots without changing the zoom level; iFly rendered the maps' scales slightly differently.

Note also the different views of NC18, Rat Landing. Only the Sectional tells you it's a seaplane base. (None of them tells you it's a very nice seaplane base owned by Henry Joiner.)
