I don't know if anyone else is having this problem, but figured I would post it here. This appears to be a foreflight problem. I tried loading flight plans from Foreflight to the Skyview and it has crashed the Ipad a few times. Sometimes the flight plan will load instantly. Sometimes it will hesitate with the little circle of dots rotating and nothing happens. It just sits there and goes nowhere. In order to stop it you have to shut down Foreflight and restart. I got it to reconnect by completely shutting down the Ipad, rebooting it then bringing up Foreflight again and reloading the flight plan to the Skyview. Do another flight plan and crash again. Not to good when you are sitting on the tarmack trying to load the revised IFR flight plan ATC just gave you. I am using the latest Skyview 12.2 software, the latest Foreflight version 7.0.1. IOS 8.3. I noticed the Foreflight site posted a problem with IOS 8.3 but that is related to bluetooth connections between the Ipad and external GPS antennas, I have an internal GPS antenna in the Ipad.
