it appears to have stopped plotting NOTAMs

[Madambreakneck]

I have Spine 5.5 and Spine 5.4 on different pooters (both WinXP) and neither plot NOTAMs any more. It could be because they're misinterpreting dates - I notice that all today's batch via the AIS website are listed by Spine as being valid from and to Sat 30-Dec-1899 00:00 UTC

Just checked, the 'download' option does plot.
Date representation in Download, thus:

<span class="endgap">
<b>
FROM:
</b>
24 SEP 2009 00:01
</span>
<span>
<b>
TO:
</b>
08 APR 2010 23:59
</span>

and same date representation from AIS website, thus:

<span style="padding: 0 20px 0 0">
B) FROM: 09/09/24 00:01
</span>
C) TO: 10/04/08 23:59


maybe that's something to do with it.

Thanks for spotting this and reporting it.

Yes, the dates are given in different formats for the two methods (wish they would standardise!), and Spine processes accordingly. I can't believe they have changed the format yet again! (Meaning: it wouldn't surprise me in the least.)

I will check this out. If the format has indeed changed, I'll try to make the parsing a bit more robust, in case they feel like changing it back again.

PS: My internet connection was down this morning, otherwise I'd probably have picked this up earlier.
