After carefully looking through the EchoFlight license agreement, I've discovered that there's nothing actually stopping me from downloading all the charts and making them available via our web site. Therefore, I've spent the $6 and got an EchoPlate subscription for the next three months. I'm hoping to load all of the DAL/COA/NWA destination airports into the database, so we're not depending on a third party anymore. So far, I've got Atlanta, Akron, and Aberdeen into the database, and I'm working on Albany.
We're talking ILS, GPS/VOR approaches, SIDs, STARs and facility charts. They'll be a little out of date, but free is free.
Cheers!
Luke

Before everyone gets too excited, this one's going to be a pain to do, and will take a few weeks. I figure if I can get 100 charts a day imported, I'm doing great, and even then it'll take a while.
Cheers!
