August 19, 201411 yr I did some googling, and couldn't find any recent threads about this. But I'm looking for a moving map/flight tracker, that I can use on either my Android phone, or web based. I have been doing a lot of long range routes lately (777), and I would like the ability to check on my flight progress when I'm at work, or just out of the house. None of the android apps in the market specify if they require the same wifi network, or if it works over the internet. Any suggestions are very much welcome. Thanks in advance. -Tony@PVD Tony Moore
August 20, 201411 yr Hi Tony If you are using an android tablet or pad then you can run anything on them that you do on your pc. I use "Air Display" on an Asus memo. This allows you to use your android as an extended screen on your pc via wifi. I have found it works extremelly well giving me just the right size screen for an instument panel. Ken
August 20, 201411 yr Author I looked into this. And i appreciate you bringing it to my attention. However, I'm looking for something to watch the status of my flight, when I'm away from home. So it needs to work over the internet, not just local wifi. I might just bite the bullet, and try a few of these android apps, and see if any of them will work when not on the same wifi network. -Tony@PVD Tony Moore
