Leadslead, great to hear you are enjoying OzRunways. 2.5 will be even better soon. And for after that, we're already working on a 747-style HSI to make you feel even more at home! Well, we hope it's 747 style, Neil is copying it from the 747 in X-Plane 9.
Incidentally, X-plane 9 is how we now do a lot of our testing:
We need to make it a bit easier to use, but we should publish how you too can hook up to X-Plane 9 reasonably soon.
Yes, Neil is simultesting on three iPads, an iPhone and the iPhone simulator!

Now image the hotness of chicks pulled by rich nerds who are also PILOTS!!!!
@WannaBeBiggles: by what metric? I'd say it's getting to be pretty freakin' huge! There are bigger downloads out there for iOS, but they contain loads of images and sounds, ours contains hardly any...
On another subject: the 17 Nov 2011 database has been released, you should see it update next time you start OzRunways and you'll be able to switch to it in settings and pre-download all the goodies.
We have firemen standing by to hose down the servers...

Nunc est bibendum
Have you guys upgraded the servers or did I just get in quickly? All seemed to go a bit quicker than last time. Perhaps that's just me though! Story of my life. Everything happens much too quickly!

Good news, everyone!
Apple has issued a fix to the "automatically deleted caches" feature of iOS 5, slated for 5.0.1, which is currently in the hands of developers.
The iOS 5 “file purge” issue | OzRunways
I have put all the code I need in 2.5 now, so when that is released, this won't be an issue anymore.

Jaba: thanks to his new testing rig, Neil has identified a lot of the issues in 2.5. In optimising things (making screens draw much faster), some things got unstable that we could only find with longer testing, which is easy now with X-Plane.
Expect a new beta soon that will be a lot more stable!

This app shutting down issue is not just OzRunways, it is Safari or possibly others. I had to shut the device down and restart it to stop the issue. Only since IOS5.
I do not think it is your problem. Unless OzR was running in the background and it was resource hungry or something.

Dual XGPS150 vs GNS 5870
Now these have been around for a couple of months or more, can any users post the pro's and con's of the Dual XGPS150 vs GNS 5870 with OzRunways?
