The Smart Approach to Approaches There are few things in life more fun than getting a new stack of approaches in the mail and spending a beautiful Saturday afternoon organizing them.Of course, if you've gone paperless, you can download individual plates from the FAA but then you have the joy of figuring out which have changed recently and which you have time to download one by one. And, lets not even talk about what happens when you have to divert to an unplanned airport and you, uh, misplaced the current approaches for it.That's what SmartPlates is all about. It manages your plates so you can go out and fly. It knows which change every month and automatically downloads the ones you need. Or all 13,500+ if you prefer. Either way, your plates are there on your PC or Tablet PC, ready and waiting. Even print them two-per page or full page. Or put them on a memory card and take into the plane. Best of all, combine SmartPlates with GlassView and watch your plane move along the plate as you fly. Computer guys call it "geo-referencing" but you'll call it magic.Note: An IFR or EFB level ChartData subscription is required to keep your plates current. All 13,500+ US Plates: ILS, LOC, GPS, RNAV, VOR, DME, NDB, LDA, SDF, MLS, HI. Arrivals, departures, airport diagrams, etc.All 50 states.Install and run on up to 3 PCs — desktops, laptop, tablets — for the same price.Integrated, on-screen fuel prices help you decide where to land. Geo-referenced plates show your plane's position on the plate as you fly it.Specific layouts for pre-flight and in-flight provides optimal experience in any environment.Download plates from either the FAA's NACO site or select Seattle Avionics smaller, pre-processed plates for 5x faster downloads.Combine with a ChartData subscription for true IFR scanned Low and Hi Enroute Charts (and Sectionals and TACs and WACs).
