Anywhere Map WX vs Garmin 396
I've actually done quite a bit of legwork (wing-work?) with AnywhereMap
and found their aviation data to be quite reliable, accurate and
complete. It served me well getting to 1S0 (Pierce County Airport, WA)
when the Jeppesen Data (September 2005 edition - $545 per year
subscription) in my Northstar panel mount was missing that airport.
Your aspersions would have credibility if you could cite at least one
specific example that could be verified...

Yes. Go to KPIT and look within 200 miles to find numerous airports
with missing or incorrect frequencies, runway information, incorrect
MEAs on airways, missing obstacles (used to be everything under 400AGL,
not sure whether they fixed this), and mislabeled roads. Need I go on?
Yes, if you would be so kind as to list an airport, nav-aid, fix or
obstacle that is correct in the Jeppesen database and incorrect in
AnywhereMap's FAA database, it would help immensely!
You'll have to do your own legwork on this since I no longer own my AWM
system. Look, you'll find them. And, by the way, Control Vision has
NEVER to my knowledge disputed the poor data. I believe that CV and
Jepp get their data from the same source (government), but Jepp corrects
it and CV does not. CV has had plans for quite a while to start
correcting the data, but it hasn't happened yet. It's just one of their
many promises on which they have not delivered.
