Here is a bit of a strange question / request. Not strictly limited to Velocity but very much on a homebuild / homebrew aviation topic.
Does anyone have a copy of an expired National Flight Database zip file that FAA puts out every 28 days? I am specifically looking for an expired version.
Here is an explanation.
I am writing a piece of software that will take the NFD dataset and crunch it into some useful form. One of which is a software tool for post-flight data analysis based on the log file my EFIS creates every flight.
NFD is available for annual subscription of $198 and I will gladly pay that once I am using the database for actual flight and updated information is critical to safety of flight. That, however may be a few years from now for me.
In the meantime, all I need really is some old dataset I can use to develop the software and test the functionality. For that, I do not need an up to date copy nor do I need 13 updates for a year.
Thank you.
Hiroo
