The next FAA data cycle begins next Thursday, June 20, 2019. We try to release ChartData the Friday before the new cycle starts. As that’s today, the new data for the US, Mexico, and Central America is now ready for download. European and Australian data will be ready soon. However, be sure not to fly with this data until June 20.
If you’re using another data provider, check with them about availability.
Important notes for FlyQ EFB user: Please do not download this new data if you plan to fly before next Thursday as the app does not currently (hint hint) have any concept of “current” versus “next” data cycle. However, FlyQ EFB downloads TFRs, fuel prices, and weather automatically so rest assured that this data will always be current even without doing a manual update
Also, read this terrific post from Keith R if you use our ChartData Managerapplication for Windows to update your data. It explains how to automatically download data and even copy data to a card or USB memory stick without any clicks! No need to sit and wait for data to download or copy.
- In FlyQ EFB: Tap the ChartData Manager icon (the “down arrow” icon), review which states you have selected, then tap Update Now.
- In FlyQ InSight or FlyQ Pocket: Select the Downloads tab on the bottom of the screen and tap Update Now.
- In FlyQ Online: Nothing to download. Just go to https://flyq.seattleavionics.com and the new data is automatically used when the new cycle begins on Thursday (but not before).
- For apps and devices that use our Data Manager, run the ChartData Manager (or select Settings from the little icon at the lower right corner of your Windows screen) and tap Update Now.
- In Voyager, select Update Data from the Tools menu then choose the All Monthly ChartData item.
If you need to renew your subscription, click the appropriate link below:
Note that FlyQ Online (our Web-based flight planner) ChartData is enabled automatically on the day the new cycle begins (next Thursday) so what you see is always the current, legal data. Unlike data for our apps and devices, we do not release FlyQ Online ChartData ahead of time since there is nothing to download.

I have and use your data with an AFS-5500 and am patiently waiting for the promised ( at Oshkosh last year) ability to upload flight plans from my iPad. When will that become reality so I don’t have to do it three times, once in the Ipad, once in the 5500 and once in my G480?

I believe that the next AFS firmware release handles it. I’ll double check w/ them.

I love the idea that you use videos to help with understanding the use of FlyQ. But seriously, who has the time (or money, my internet is metered, $80 for 5Gb.) to watch 70+ videos? Can’t you consolidate all of that into a short little training series? Sometimes you don’t know what you don’t know. It would be nice to have an organized way to figure that out.

Hi Clint. We do. In fact, when you begin a trial, you get an email every day for the next 7 days with a short (5-10) minute video on a specific topic. See the “7 Day Challenge” Playlist on YouTube. We also point that out specifically in https://seattleavionics.wordpress.com/2019/03/22/welcome-to-flyq-training-materials/
