And how come the date shows the 1st submission date ??
AF/D & TPP
Yikes, once downloaded all PDF’s take 3.5 GB!
So I guess I will not be hosting those, and any downloads will be directly from the FAA website – unfortunately that means its possible it works to download charts but not the AF/D (or the opposite).
1.1 released!
Submitted to AppStore for approval last night.

Countdown to 1.1

Pinch/zoom..
Yes, I’m well aware there is no pinch/zoom, but the problem is that if I let the UIScrollView handle the pinch/zoom gesture it eventually ends up in a bad state. Hence I disabled that for now until I find a way to work around the bug in Apple’s underlying code. I have been unable to do that so far though, and I have not heard anything back from Apple either. Sorry!
Working on 1.1
So after some feedback on improvements I’ll do some changes and release 1.1 before resuming work with adding AF/D and TPP.
I have also spent a lot of time trying to workaround the pinch/zoom bug, but nothing seems to work so far. I’ll shift focus a little bit and work on other things. And maybe I will even hear back from Apple at some point ?
If you have some suggestions please let me know on the forum!
(PM me if you want to keep it non public).
sqlite3 and FAA database
So have been able to retrieve AF/D and TPP (aka airport facilities directory and terminal procedures publication) for all airports into sqlite3 (via mysql on server).
Now working on distance calculations and presenting the data on the iPhone when selecting an airport.
