SkyView system before connecting your ChartData-equipped USB sticks.

However, it should be noted that you CAN use your ChartData-equipped memory
sticks to install software updates and other SkyView-supported Databases as you
normally would.

Purchasing and Using PocketFMS Charts with a Frequent Flyer Membership (Europe
only)

To provide chart data in Europe, Dynon Avionics has partnered with PocketFMS. To purchase
chart data from Pocket FMS, go to

www.pocketFMS.com/dynon

and purchase a Frequent Flyer

membership.

Frequent Flyer membership, which includes AeroData, charts (including Pooleys in the UK),
airport diagrams, and visual approach, landing, and area charts, costs €150 per year. This is only
€31 more than the existing SkyView AeroData-only subscription (which remains available).
Additionally, if you are a PocketFMS AeroData subscriber as of the release of European charts
prior to Dec 2013, your account will be upgraded to a Frequent Flyer subscription for the
duration of your existing subscription. Note that neither German DFS charts nor Swiss SkyGuide
VFR Plates are included in this price, but they are available at additional cost.


Once you have registered and paid for your Frequent Flyer membership, you will have a
registered email address and a registration number. Record this information in a safe place as
you will need it to “unlock” the EasyVFR PC application used to download charts.

Downloading and Using PocketFMS EasyVFR to obtain charts

After you’ve purchased a PocketFMS Frequent Flyer Membership, the PocketFMS EasyVFR
application for PC can be downloaded from

www.pocketFMS.com/dynon

.

A tutorial on how to use EasyVFR is available from Dynon Avionics at

http://www.dynonavionics.com/docs/support_software_SkyView_Charts_PocketFMS.html

.

Also, PocketFMS has their own tutorials available along the left side of their

http://www.pocketfms.com/dynon/

site ("Dataset Installation" and "Plates Installation")

If you have multiple SkyView displays, you will need to create a memory stick for use with each
display. To accomplish this, simply insert another USB memory stick and repeat from the
“Dynon Export” step above.

After you have installed the charts to your USB memory sticks with EasyVFR, simply connect
them to your SkyView display(s) to enable charting capabilities. The USB memory stick(s) must
be left connected to your SkyView display(s) during normal use for charts to be available.

Note that SkyView only allows one USB memory stick to be connected to a display
at a time. Any other USB memory stick – such as the one that you normally use for
SkyView software and database updates – must be disconnected from your
SkyView system before connecting your chart-equipped USB sticks.
