During 2018, GA airfields in the UK will be moving from 25KHz to 8.33KHz frequencies.    Farnborough airfield (EGLF) changed its tower frequency during January from 122.500 to 122.780.  The latest AIP shows the new Tower frequency (although the ATIS frequency is wrong!) yet SkyDemon still shows the old (25KHz) frequencies in the PLOG etc.  How will the new frequencies be captured by the SD team?

The 8.33 change appears to have come as a surprise to the authorities which publish the information. We are doing what we can but we (any everyone really) do rely on them to publish correct and definitive information.

Airfi‌elds whose data is not published in an AIP are more difficult but we are receiving a steady stream of notifications and will probably publish interim chart updates as we bulk-update frequencies.‌
