Includes Many New Features And Enhancements
With the last feature approved and the final tests passed, WingX Version 9 is now available on the Apple App Store. And note the name change, WingX Pro7 is now simply WingX.
WingX Version 9 is a free upgrade for all users. The new version uses a completely new and improved Moving Map which requires new Moving Map files such as the VFR Sectionals, IFR Low/High Enroutes etc. Hilton Software recommends that users do not update WingX immediately prior to a flight (turn off Auto Updates on the Apple Store temporarily if required). After installing WingX Version 9, users will need to download the new and improved moving map files.
They also strongly recommend that you upgrade to WingX Version 9 within the next two weeks to ensure continued downloading of data cycle information.
The primary feature highlights coming with WingX Version 9 include:
- Entirely new Moving Map - this significant update has enabled us to improve the WingX experience in Version 9 and also lays the groundwork for many new great features in upcoming versions.
- Region downloading to reduce download time and storage space.
- Improved data cycle handling including dual-cycle downloading.
- Better and faster weather graphics as well as smoother weather animation.
- App and server enhancements for faster delivery of data cycle delivery.
- Real-time weather updates (Prog charts, icing, etc)
- Stratus 3 with AHRS support
- Many enhancements and some bug fixes.
