LIDO Charts

Just an important caveat about the LIDO charts - it's only for airports which an airliner would fly into. So if you do General Aviation (and you fly outside of the USA, because FAA charts covers that area), you won't have any charts.

Indeed. LIDO covers almost NO airports that I actually fly into as a GA flyer, and while the sim does provide FAA charts in the US for the (many) airports not covered by LIDO, it doesn't provide similar options in other countries. I also prefer Jepp to LIDO and definitely prefer them to FAA charts.

The LIDO offerings may be great for many scheduled airline flights, but they are pretty much a non starter for me. And with all of the other tools and integrations offered by Navigraph I find my sub one of the best values in simming.

YMMV, of course, depending on the kind of flying you do.

Yep, I did a screenshot post a few days ago and showed off a little of their app - it's really useful and laid out quite well. I absolutely understand that some people abhor subscriptions, but this is pretty cheap for what you get. It really is a cup of (nice) coffee per month.

I don't want to discard the incredible work WorkingTitle has done either, and the partnership between Lido and Microsoft - impressive they pulled that off. The native flightplanner/efb is pretty decent as well.
