I have seen this problem with both a Skyview system and a Garmin System. In both systems the status says it is updating but unable to display it when selecting an airport. You have to be over 1~2 hours in flight or more than 200 Miles from your departure point. You can also see this problem by...

From what you describe it sounds like your WiFi adapter plugged into Skyview is failing. At least that would be my first guess as it is cheapest to try. If you have another Skyview owner at your airport you could borrow to see if it fixes you problem. Kurt

Foreflight has no forum. They have no user available bug report. They do not air their dirty laundry. I had a FAA guy tell me I should file a NASA ASR report. This will get more attention by Boeing Foreflight as they are part of the review board process. Boeing Foreflight appears to be more...

Not in my case. The easiest way to show this is by not connecting to the internet prior to a flight. Just go to your airplane and immediately connect your tablet to the Skyview network. Once you are receiving ADSB data try to look up a local airports METARs. They all will say Not Available...

yes, connect to Skyview network and select “Traffic” in the Aero & Category menu. kurt

Yes. The HDX will display traffic on Foreflight if you have the SV 472 ADSB receiver. You have to enable it in Foreflight

It is very easy to add a sensor calibration. In fact, I have a custom sensor file that I reload after every SV software update. It is simple. Takes about 10 seconds longer. kurt

No the problem has not been fixed. I am using the Skyview SV 472 receiver. My neighbor has an all Garmin system and has the same problem. It is definitely a Foreflight issue. I tried two different generation tablets and even flew with neighbor and confirmed problem is present when Garmin is...

If the PMag / prop is positioned right at 0 deg it is possible that one or both IGN’s are toggling because it is positioned so close to the decision to send out the tach pulse. So, as Michael said above just move the prop a couple degrees and it will stop. i have seen this a couple time...

I have gotten the same message before but never lost glide slope indications. I just used the higher minimums. This was about 6 months ago. i suspect this it due to RAIM level is not good enough to support the glide slope. the approach I was on was RNAV 13 into KTYR in Texas. It has a LPV...

Regarding to OLED com radio display. My experience with OLED in aircraft have been poor life spans. I have had 2 devices with OLED in my Glasair. Both have had to have the displays changed in about 5 years, or less. One display I had it converted back to mono LCD after the second replacement...

I can tell my experiences as I was an original classic Skyview that recently upgraded to the HDX. My experience was the classic was more robust regarding WiFi connectivity. I rarely, had a WiFi disconnect with a IFD 540 and an IPAD with Foreflight connected. I only had numerous WiFi...

if you have two iPads connected you will occasionally see a loss of WiFi on one or both iPads. It auto recovers. This has improved but still happens on occasion. I routinely have my IFD 540 and a single iPad running Foreflight with no problems. Once a second iPad is connected it will loose...

Yes you can send a flight plan to Skyview. But recent updates to Foreflight will default to the IFD, if installed and on same network. I am sure you can force it to Skyview by settings. I only use the IFD for flight plans so only sent to Skyview by accident. kurt

Foreflight will automatically prompt you if you want to upload flight plan to the IFD if you are at an airport and connected. If you choose to upload it will go into the IFD flight plan list. Not the active plan. Make sure you have IFD at version 10.3.1. Kurt

Yes. Set your IFD as a remote to the Skyview network. See IFD instructions on connecting as remote device to Stratus. Follow this except substitute Skyview for Stratus. Once you connect you will get messages on IFD to authorize the IP address trying to connect. Connect your IPad to Skyview...

The Avidyne can connect to the Skyview network as a remote device. Foreflight IPad also connects as a remote device to Skyview. Foreflight will now automatically detect the IFD on the Skyview network and prompt you if you want to transfer the flight plan after you connect. No need to switch...

The Seattle avionics databases can be uploaded into the Skyview displays via Slingshot feature. Search the Seattle Avionics web site for details. I think you need to be a fly-q subscriber.

Do you have DYNON battery backups on displays? Kurt

I recently submitted a bug report to ForeFlight because it does not update the METARS, Lightning or NOTAMs once I am in flight. Starts off ok but once i get a couple hundred miles away from starting point i notice METARS are unavailable. All these products are displayed perfectly on the...
