Hi,
I have all AFE plates downloaded.
When trying to view plates when I have no internet connection, I'm getting an error message that says an active internet connection is needed. The first few times this happened I cursed and reached behind me to get the AFE hard copy out of my bag.
However I then discovered that if I click 'OK' to this message, then look in the plates tab, the airfield that I was trying to display is now listed, and I can view it as normal.
So there seems to be a bug, but it's a minor one and you can work through it by basically ignoring the error message and clicking on the 'plates' tab to view the plate you were searching for
