Pros and cons of AeroPointer - Airport Data app for iPhone and iPad

AeroPointer - Airport Data app good for

I found this App more by incident. And I have to say, I really like it. The map is cool, showing all the Navaids in your area. And the easy approach-chart access is great. 5 stars!!
With the usual caveat that information in this app is not for official flight planning; its a great tool to aid enhanced situational awareness - even provides a map to visualize alternate airport strategies. Support of this app is outstanding with regular updates!
This app is great. Active NOTAMS, Airport Charts, current weather, all for FREE.

Some bad moments

Very user friendly, NOTAM and weather data are very convenient.
I love having most of the info from the AFD at my fingertips in the plane. I hate thumbing through paper books and charts in flight.
Rally comprehensive apps for aviation professionals, highly recommended!!!
