Lynx ngt-9000

I'm getting ready to have a Lynx ngt-9000+ with diversity installed in my Cirrus SR-22. And have a few questions.

1. I have an Ipad mini 2 with Ifly GPS ... once the Ipad is wirelessly connected to the ngt-9000, will the Ifly GPS app show all traffic (ads-b & TAS) that is showing on the Lynx ngt-9000?

2. In flight, can I select an airport on the Ifly GPS app and have the METAR come up just as if I was sitting in my living room at home connected to my home network? How about airport data?

3. Is there a way to get XM weather displayed on the Ifly GPS app (I do have XM weather in my Cirrus)?

Thanks, Jeff

If you have ADS-B out, your iPad will show all the traffic. If you only have ADS-B in, then no. You will see all information that is broadcast via ADS-B. That is not necessarily everything you might receive via an internet connection. At this time, iFly does not display XM weather, but they are working on that as a possible future enhancement.

I have tried almost all the EFB programs except FF. IMHO, iFly GPS is by far the best. You won't be disappointed.

PS: airport data is included in the database that is downloaded via your internet connection periodically along with charts, approach plates, etc. In the air, you get metars, TAF's, nexrad radar, traffic, etc. via ADS-B.
