So I also bought a subsription for the German AIP and indeed I found the georeferenced Approach and Arrival plates. But I have not seen one georeferenced Aerodrome Chart yet. Am I doing something wrong? If not: when can we expect to receive such charts - at least for the bigger airports with more complicated taxiway systems?

We are open to georeferencing some aerodrome charts but people simply don't seem to be that interested. The other issue is that the data isn't sufficient for us to do it perfectly; we only have the ARP and the map scale, which can only lead to an approximate georeferenced job. Strangely enough at the Aero show recently somebody asked me about this, and I suggested to him that if he sent me a list of aerodromes (ten I think) I would be happy to trial a few more georeferenced plates, but I never received anything. ‌‌

"tschnell" listed some airfields and you replied to his list. I checkt the aerodromes but they weren´t referenced. Did I misunderstand the list or your answer? http://forums.skydemon.aero/FindPost17796.aspx http://forums.skydemon.aero/FindPost17807.aspx ‌‌

I hear lot of people speaking of "this feature jeppesen flite deck has and SD not" and so on. In my opinion it would be a good feature which enriches Sky Demon an could be one more USP. Don´t you think so?
