If desired, the entire route from departure to arrival can be created without reference to any navigational aids or official airports. Plans created this way label the waypoints automatically with generic names (e.g. VFR pilots often use towns, lakes and other unique geographic features and with QuickPlan you can add any geographical location shown on the base map. In the Freeform Mode you simply click anywhere on the map and QuickPlan will allow you to add it as a generic waypoint.

QuickPlan for Mac can be used in Freeform Mode, Advanced Mode, or a combination of both, but what is what? Because it uses visual point and click, it perhaps leans towards being more suited to shorter VFR/IFR style usage, rather than long-haul flying.” The design concept is to provide a quick and easy X-Plane (and yes, also for FSX, FS2004) native flight plan file creator (i.e.pln and.

Those guys are very creative and work at light speed so I would keep at eye on them. Maybe be able to feed the AFS2 Nav plan direct to the HD maps and show progress. I expect some tighter integration with AFS2 from FSWidgets. I use the FSWidgets maps and Quick Plan all the time. You can do most anything with an extra monitor with Sim Innovations as soon as they have a working link to AFS2.

My hope is for the Air Manager for the remote gauges. It works with all the other mainline flight simulators and could possibly be available for Aerofly FS 2 shortly. Take a look at Air Manager for iPad from Sim Innovations for instruments and gauges. You can instantly change from Satellite images to flight charts and zoom all the way in to use as a substitute for Gamin's Safe Taxi.

I use both an additional monitor and an iPad for the flight plans and maps. The now available FSWidgets HD maps have replaced the RemoteFlight Maps for me in Aerofly FS 2. I used all the RemoteFlight products until I discovered a similar product from Sim Innovations for the flight instruments and gauges.
