SkyCharts subscription messages
The old SkyCharts Classic (the $9.99 version) will today start asking you to update to the Pro version. If you have been onboard since the beginning you may have had up to 3.5 years of current charts for $9.99!!!
In order to keep getting current charts, please purchase the Pro version of the application.
If you think you’re getting the upgrade message in error, please see the contact tab.

FYI: Its IS possible to connect any sort of NMEA capable GPS device to SkyCharts, but its not straight forward. Please comment if this is something you would like to make easier.
Server changes
Should hopefully not affect anything, but if you do notice some broken links or the server seems unresponsive please just reset your device to get the new DNS.
Please see Q1 in the FAQ how to reset your device.

Are now working again. Sorry for the downtime, but the wp plugins just stopped working and finally got around fixing them.

v2.9.5 released
With retina display support! Charts look really sharp on the new iPad. Enjoy.
Retina display
If you’re wondering, yes, for you who have the latest iPad you will enjoy even crisper charts once the next version is out! The A/FD and approach plates already show correctly on a retina display device.
SuperAWOS data added
SkyCharts normally use the NWS metars, but if you have an internet connected AWOS that’s not part of the NWS collection, please let me know and I can try adding the data.
A list of the SuperAWOS data is here.
