Dang, how did I not see this before. Doug how is nacomatic really designed to be used by pinning the site to favorites or by downloading. I don't have an electronic flight bag /tablet which would require the down load but for a regular PC I guess it dosen't matter?
 
The Feb 11th, cycle 1002, is now available for downloading.

I have added a "Lite" edition for the 800x600 ebook readers. It is ~1/7th the size
of the "Universal" edition.

I have also added a "Night Vision" edition. I tired of having the white background
spoil my night vision. This edition has white-on-black. Much better for night ops.

NACOmatic: Aug:Sep IAPs, Sectionals, TACs & Enroute Charts Too

The Aug:Sep cycle (#1009) of IAPs is now available
for downloading from:

www.NACOmatic.com

New Features:

- Low Altitude Enroute Charts
- High Altitude Enroute Charts
- Sectionals
- TACs

Tips for users of Adobe Reader & Foxit (free):

- Zoom/pan so that you see whatever you desire on the screen.

> File
>> Print
>>> Print Range
>>>> [Click the button] Current View

Using Adobe's (purchased) Acrobat viewer; you can print
the charts as tiles, on 8.5x11" paper:

> File
>> Print
>>> Print Range section; select from amongst: <All>, <Current View>, <Current Page>
>>>> Page Scaling: Tile Large Pages
>>>>> Overlap: <Enter your preference>

Caution: Printing a Sectional or TAC is going to require a LOT of
(expensive) ink. If you are planning on printing whole charts, it
may indeed be cheaper to just buy/subscribe to harcopy charts.

My Thoughts (Bias):

These seem to be useful for devices that have multi-touch (pinch/zoom)
interfaces (iPad, iPhone, 'Droids, etc).

I really doubt that a classic Windows pen/finger/scroll-bar interface is
going to be very workable.

PIREPs, please ...
 
Re: NACOmatic; 2011 Changes; Fee, not free

What are you nuts? Good News/ Bad News. You have a good product and $1.00 is chump change to pay for it. I'd hardly say $1.00 is bad news.

Actually, I'd almost say Good News/Better News.

Sorry, but at a price-point of "free", it's inevitable that it will go away. If you're charging for it, you're more likely to keep it running!
