Just curious, but for all this hassle do these programs do anything a standard paper chart doesn't do? I mean obviously I wouldn't keep stacks and stacks of paper charts all around, but I keep the pdf files of them on my computer and avail of them through the various phases of flight. Thanks!

Hi to all as this is my first post here.......Hey, Mad Dog - thanks for spelling it out - really helped setting up the panel.cfg to get Airport Chart working. Have installed the new guage/function into the FSX default C208 - works a treat! It's going to be a great help getting in and out of strange airports - this has been a big problem for me with Cargo Pilot and, more recently, beta testing a new cargo hauling app.Many thanks again.Cheers - David Williams (EGFE).
