   <![CDATA[This iPhone 3G or iPod touch application uses your built-in GPS to give you position information overlaid on a sectional chart, along with other useful features. View your actual location on top of a sectional chart.  Zoom in and out from your current location or pan around the screen.  Sectional charts are stored locally so once the entire sectional is downloaded you don't need a data connection to view.  The program also provides ability to view approach charts and A/FD information in PDF format, as well as ability to dial ASOS/AWOS weather directly from the program. SkyCharts will also notify you of a sectional that is out of date (expired) and provide an option to download an updated sectional directly on your iPhone or iPod touch device. The program will also load METAR information for airports around your location. As another program bonus you can use SkyCharts with the X-Plane flight simulator (see HTML user documentation below, for details).]]>
