Wow, the new digital sectionals are impressive. I have seen them on Foreflight, WingX, and FlyQ.

Any idea when we might see this on iFly?

Hi Ed,

Yes, I updated my iPad today and didn't see the new digital sectionals. I went into the "Advanced" section and forced an update. I will try again now.

Sorry, Ed, but the sectionals in iFly on my iPad with retina display are not the digital ones that I see in other places on the same iPad. Any ideas?

I tried deselecting all of the areas on the update map and selecting an area that was previously not selected. New sectional was present. Went back and selected an area previously selected, it downloaded (I watched the progress bar), and it now shows.....the old sectional. Not what I hoped for.

After another "update" after deleting the old areas, the new digital sectionals do show up.

My question was not about the iPad however, I was more interested in if they would show on the iFly 720.

I am using a new iPad mini.

What version of iFly are you running? The current version is 8.1.67.

When I look at the NY sectional and compare it to the Detroit sectional, there is a big difference in clarity and color levels. The NY chart dates are 14 Nov 13 to 1 May 14 and the Detroit is 3 April 14 to 18 Sept 14.

It could be a simple as the FAA has not updated the chart you are viewing. Update may come at next release..

I might have missed it but will we see the same resolution on our 700s and 720s?
