Are ready, but need an app update before they can be used.
Hopefully Apple will be as quick releasing as they have this year.

v1.5.6 released

January 7th, 2010

Another fast release from Apple - wow, they must have improved something in their release flow ??

In any case, v1.5.6 adds a new power setting - enable it for the old behavior where display doesn’t blank in battery mode (turning off display greatly reduces power usage).

The memory footprint has also been reduced, getting a memory warning should be very infrequent.

To reiterate: PLEASE let me know if you have problems. But you can’t just say ‘it doesn’t work’, please be specific.
Also, due to the large database it requires a lot of memory, and that’s something the 3G does not have. If you have any issues, please reboot the phone, then delete and re-install to make sure the app starts in a good place.

To contact me, see the ‘Contact’ side bar, or register on the forum.

v1.5.5 is released

December 30th, 2009

Wow, SUPER fast approval from Apple, only 2 days!!
In any case, enjoy the new IFR low enroute & TAC charts
You can now also select Track up or North up on the fly.
FYI: If you prefer North up and don’t care about Track up, please select North up in the settings for SkyCharts since it will run faster in North up.

Are being processed. Remember, only the latest version of SkyCharts will get updates. Please update, SkyCharts keeps evolving quickly so you do not want to keep running an older version.

v1.5.4 released

December 2nd, 2009

Now with track up/north. When in track north the airplane changes direction instead of rotating the entire chart.
