Default Avidyne IFD440 + Dynon Skyview question

Can anyone tell me if the Avidyne IFD440 will accept flight plans from Skyview? I have a 430w now, which will feed the Skyview flight data, but it will not accept flight plans from the Skyview. I'm curious if the IFD440 is capable of receiving.

Thanks!

Default No . . .

. . . . is the short answer. Sorry.

However, it is really easy entering plans into the 440 (which the Skyview sees and uses) and it also accepts plans directly from Foreflight via WiFi which works really well.

Thanks Dan! Glad to hear it will accept from Foreflight, which would be a nice upgrade to my workflow. Now to figure out if I really want to spend ~$6k for an upgrade from the 430! Yikes.
