I don't know if this is an issue limited to the Android version, but I've found an airspace bug.

Draw a course through the A-371 alert area around Clarksville TN, Fort Campbell, and see its altitude in profile view.  It shows 2000-to-unlimited but should be surface-to-2000.  Maybe it's an error limited to that airspace due to a faulty source database?

And while I'm here, I should put in a request for the Grand Canyon VFR sectional chart supplement to be available when downloading the regular sectional for the area...it's complex airspace and only visible on the raster data.

Thanks!

I'm seeing surface to 2,000 on Windows version.

I'm seeing the problem on IOS version.

Thank you for posting.  I have tested this out on Windows, Android and iOS  - and for all 3 I'm seeing "SFC to 2,000'" as it's supposed to.  Can you try "Menu => Check For Updates => Begin Download" to make sure you have the latest aviation data?   If you can reproduce this bug still, please post a screenshot here, so that I might find a clue to solve this mystery.

It's been this way through several updates and DB force-refreshes.

Now I notice for the first time that the thumbnail profile on the map screen depicts the airspace correctly, while the larger views don't.  And the restricted and MOA areas seem to corrupt as well.

Still the best tablet flying aid on the market, by the way!  I don't care much about alert areas, but I figured I'd mention the bug since I've never noticed any others.
