Hi David,

Try the company website at http://www.xample.ch/
The official name is Air Navigation Pro.
Check it out, you might be pleased.


Hi Garry,
The georef plates are an interesting issue. It would make sense
That the necessary data is within the compressed PDF. However,
In a burst curiosity, I disassembled and decompressed some 
Plates straight from NACO.  Amazingly, it is not there, not in 
the standard public release. Amazingly, the PDFs actually contain
a vectorized version of the all the tiny little strokes on the page, not
the geometry. Secure I suppose, but extremely inefficient, space wise.

There is a single company in Seattle that apparently gets better PDFs or
additional information from NACO.  Those that do georeferenced plates
at the moment, all use this company's product.  If Foreflight is going
With them, we can expect to pay more ;(

Stay warm Garry!
