WACCOMP_US expired

I'm getting a WACCOMP_US expired on 1/1/2019 message when zoomong out. I see no way to update.

Anyone have any idea on how to resolve this?

Re: WACCOMP_US expired

All WAC charts have been discontinued by NOAA for over 2 years so there are no updates. IFly just has not got around to eliminating them. But most mountains don't move much so part of the WACs are still useful.

Have you tried to uncheck the WAC charts in the "Selected Data Types" in the Data Manager?

WAC charts have been discontiued. The disontiuance started in 2015. There are no updates for them.

Re: WACCOMP_US expired

Thanks for the hint about deleting the WAC charts. However, this is also an issue with IFR charts, and I don't think there's a workaround. Since January, zooming out on an IFR low chart will show EnrLowComp_US expired 1/1/2019. I sent a support email but nobody has replied in two months. Unlike the WAC, instrument routes do tend to change, especially as VORs are decommissioned.

I think that means a comprehensive chart of the entire US low altitude charts has expired, not the actual charts you use to fly with when zoomed in to a readable level.
