Apple still having issues with their maps software. Should have stuck with google maps for a few more years

It does border both Yukon and British Columbia, which are Canadian provinces / territories. That airport isn't even near the border either of the aforementioned places either.

I either ignore, post up "do not feed the troll" messages, or occasionally, as with this point, rise to the bait for a bit of a giggle, yes, feeding the trolls I know.

Personally, I'd be more worried about the bears in the woods, even though they don't use I Phones to my knowledge.

Apple Maps I use for directions and terrain, never let me down. 4,000 miles in the last month around Europe with very little data usage, I get 15mb a day total so have to be frugal.
The 3D mapping even on the phone is incredible, much nicer to use than Google Earth and Google Maps is flat. I've been flying in and around mountains so it's been vital.
If I need Pizza or a Kebab I use Google Maps. Streetview is also very cool, but a bit creepy.

Don't bother. I started a thread in Policy about the constant trolling, both Pro / Anti apple and Pro / Anti Android and no response from the mods, so I guess that they really don't give a damn about it.

Besides to be honest a lot of this forum is doom and gloom, at least with the apple and android threads you get jack posting who admittedly is one of the few scoobynet personalities and you generally get a good bit of banter going.
FWIW I like apple and they do always get things right eventually, and their products do usually have good build quality as well, just that I prefer android as I like how I can customise it with modified roms etc.
