    Your Skyvector replacement.

    Some of these enhancements shouldn't be too difficult to implement given the work we did with EdFred... You can access TFR info now by left clicking inside the TFR and choosing 'Airspace' in the upper-right corner of the pop-up menu. You'll get a vertical profile of all airspace above that...

    Your Skyvector replacement.

    The Navigation Log on you're seeing on iFlightPlanner.com/AviationCharts is a basic, "no wind" calculation so the reverse function that's there does not change the total time. The effects of current/forecasted winds on that route is available if you use the "Retrieve Wx Brief & File"...

    This was actually one of Ed's suggestions from our conversation earlier today... The ENTER/RETURN key will mimic the functionality of the Show Route button when your cursor is in the Flight Route field. This, and a few other enhancements we identified today, will be coming soon! Best, Andy

    IflightPlanner (free) - Better than Foreflight?

    Hi Lorne, Just in the last two weeks we have begun the process of adding basic FBO information to our A/FD (with fuel prices) regardless of whether or not the FBO has chosen to upgrade to a Premium listing. This process is happening more or less alphabetically by state and we simply...
