Default RunwayFinder stuck?

For the second time this year, RF has gone 48 hours out of date. DavePar, say it aint so!

I only know this because the new L-5 chart has the update location of the Penasco (PPE) vor. I'm still waiting for RF to have the realigned airways.

I wish there was an easy way to know if RF was current rather than tabbing back and forth with SkyVector to find differences.

Yes, sorry the charts were out of date for a couple of days, but they are fixed now. I was at Oshkosh and didn't bring a laptop with me to do the updates. Wasn't sure if my laptop would be safe in the dorms.

Also, the FAA "improved" the IFR charts for this cycle without warning anybody. And of course the improved version is much worse than the old version. Luckily, they've fixed the problems and I'm not working on getting the fixed charts onto the site.
