IFD540 iPad Sim Data

   Wondering if Avidyne could update the aviation databases within the app to match the current data we are using while flying? Can't speak for the U.S. but I'm creating flight plans in Foreflight using current data, but the IFD app is using fairly old data...at least in the Calgary, Alberta area. Most of the approaches are to the old runway alignments IE: Rwy 34, instead of the new runway #35, etc. Also wondering if this is why when flying an ILS approach with the correct frequency, it does not show up in the Map left data block, and I'm getting a check NavAid indication?

	I tried updating the sim database using the maintenance mode today, but that didn't work. It would be nice if that could be made to work. That may address any Jeppesen subscription issues.
