October 19, 20214 yr Hi guys, Quick question. I am thinking about using Aerosoft Navdata Pro for MSFS and would like to know if someone else has an opinion about it. Is it a good alternative to Navigraph? Its just i like the LIDO charts better than Jeppesen ones and Aerosofts charts software looks a bit more userfriendly. So if anyone has used it and can say something about it, i'd be happy to hear!

October 19, 20214 yr Commercial Member I have both products and I use them both for different reasons. Like you, I actually prefer the LIDO Charts even though I grew up with Jeppessen. I don't know about more user friendly, but the colored LIDO charts are awesome. For full disclosure, note please that I am affliated with Aerosoft, however I don't believe there is a soul in the flight sim world who knows me who would question my ethics, honor or truthfulness. Best wishes! Dave Hodges System Specs: I9-13900KF, NVIDIA 4070TI, Quest 3, Multiple Displays, Lots of TERRIFIC friends, 3 cats, and a wonderfully stubborn wife.
October 19, 20214 yr Commercial Member I love the LIDO charts but I feel like Navigraph is more robust.

Maybe he changed it? Anyway, I guess it can be a little confusing. The produycts we have are: NavDataPro Complete (both charts and NavData) NavDataPro Charts NavDataPro Best wishes!

There are always differences between the Luftasnsa and Jeppesenn data, but for the most part the coverage is the same. I believe you can Google for the differences between LIDO and Jepp. Best wishes my friends! EDIT: We also have a very inexpensive One-Month NavData Pro product if you'd like to try it.

Best wishes! Is the aerosoft app integrated with MSFS 2020? I mean, can it be accessed inside the sim by using the toolbar or some hotkey? Also, does it connect with the sim to provide relative aircraft position on the charts like the Navigraph app does?
July 17, 20223 yr The Aerosoft Navdata and the LIDO charts may be better or nicer but the ONE BIG problem is that the better planes out there (like the Fenix) only support Navigraph. So does Simbrief (obviously). So that's the end of Aerosoft's data for me.
