Chelton data is available through Jeppesen. A yearly update costs $575.
You need to download a piece of software called “Jeppesen Services Update Manager” to your computer. The data then gets downloaded to SmartMedia cards through a card reader. The card is then used to download the data into your EFIS.
The data is actually in two parts; NAVDATA and OBST
You can email me directly if you need more information – legacyflyer@gmail.com
The reason that I am so familiar with this process is that I just got a new card reader and renewed my subscription.

Subject: [LML] Chelton updates
Does anyone know how to get Chelton Updates?
I've been looking and just discovered that it appears the terrain database is not available anywhere.
I haven't been able to download a maps database either.
Any advice from those who are flying Cheltons?
Thanks.
