It's my flight planner of choice! All the info I need from real world VFR charts online.

 

The OSM / google maps based options pale in comparison to this one.

I Agree,Great Stuff

Use it for vfr planning good site.

I think it's great too, the only thing I miss though is the ability to print

Is it possible to export an FMS FP file?

And... a great way to find nice places to go flying, by checking the METAR :-)

Another vote for skyvector.com.  I'm working on a Cuba scenery package for X-Plane, and Skyvector's been a great help for airport info/Google images.  

 

Skyvector has a WAC chart covering Cuba and the Florida Strait that shows a bunch of pre-revolutionary Cuban airports.  Many of them aren't in apt.dat, but Google Earth shows some are still active, probably mainly for cropdusting (aircraft visible in Google images are almost all Antonov An-2s.)

 

Too bad Skyvector doesn't provide any way to export flight plan info in .fms format, but their charts are still a tremendous resource for world navigation and VFR pilotage. I don't know of any other online source for maps of Skyvector's quality, and you can't easily buy paper maps for VFR flying outside the US.  Sporty's Pilot Shop used to sell ONCs (Operational Navigational Charts), but I don't think ONCs are authorized for distribution to civilian users these days.
