Default Anywhere Map WX vs Garmin 396

In a previous article, "Grumman 236" said:
AnywhereMap info for KWAY shows runway 08/26 at 3,500'X75' Left traffic
and 1,065' elevation. 082-degrees magnetic heading.

Airnav shows the runways as 09/27 and NACO shows a helicopter GPS090
approach.


My FAA data has the runway as 9/27, but my DAFIF data has it as 8/26. I
guess that shows where AnywhereMap is getting their data. In my
experience, DAFIF data is not as good as FAA data, but it's the only
solution for outside the US if you don't want to pay Jeppesen fees.
