Moreover,wehavenow addressed all of the known issues with the app oneveryAndroidplatform that we have encountered. The app looks andworksgreat --we sincerely thank those early purchasers whopatientlyworked withus through niggles in early versions and offera virtualkick inthe behind to the one guy who wrote us a bad reviewratherthanallowing us to promptly help him. Thank you all forthegreatfeedback and kind words about SimPlates on simulatorforums.We'reglad you're enjoying the massive number of plates (waymorethanany other sim product has - including expensivesubscriptionbasesservices) and we continue to update the platedatabase furtherwithmore plates still. !!! AS SOON AS YOU GET THEAPP DO ADATABASEUPDATE CHECK FROM THE MAIN MENU TO GET THE LATESTANDGREATEST !!!+++ The basic way that you use SimPlates is justlikepilots fromthose flying small Cessnas to those flying BoeingandAirbusairliners do every day. As you virtually approach anairportonyour computer, bring up its corresponding plates intheSimPlatesapp. Use the plate as a guide in flying the approachtolanding -just like a real world pilot would. SimPlates isusefulfor virtualpilots of many desktop flight simulationprograms,including FlightSimulator (all versions including FSX,FS2004, andMS-Flight),X-Plane, and more. While SimPlates arereal-worldplates, they areNOT SUITABLE FOR REAL WORLD FLIGHTOPERATIONS andMUST NOT BE USEDFOR REAL WORLD FLIGHT OPERATIONS OFANY SORT. AsSimPlates isintended for flight simulationentertainment use, theplates arenot kept up to date with real-worldaviation changes(worldwidesubscriptions for real-world current dataover $2000 peryearelsewhere!). However, for serious flightsimulationentertainmentuse, the massive collection of platesrepresentsincredible valueand capability. SimPlates includes over70,000real-world IFRplates, including approachplates,SIDs/STARs(Departures/Arrivals), Airport Diagrams, ApproachtypesincludeILS, VOR, VOR/DME, NDB, LLZ, SDF, GPS, TACAN,HelicopterandVisual. With so many plates, SimPlates provides verygoodworldwidecoverage. For most countries and major airports oftheworld, ifyou are looking for a plates, SimPlates will likelyhaveit.However, the coverage is not universal -pleaseseehttp://www.dauntless-soft.com/products/simplates/airportlist.aspforthecurrent list of inclusions.

Simplates'friendlyinterfacemakes it easy to find exactly the plate orinformationyou arelooking for quickly. As the totality of platesexceeds awhopping100gb, the plates themselves are not included withyourinitialdownload from the AppStore. Rather, they are downloadedondemandwhen you select them in the app – this generally takesonlya fewmoments per plate, but does require you to be online.Anyplates youhave downloaded into SimPlates remain on yourdevice(unlesscleared) so that you can continue to use them evenwhileoffline.The SimPlates Team SimPlates.com
