August 3Aug 3 Its super to have , so much integrated in msfs nowadays with it so its helpful , i love simbrief
August 3Aug 3 Absolutely. Not only for flying but helpful for scenery design too. Windsocks are not always clear on Google Maps and MSFS is often wrong about where they are

August 3Aug 3 A must-have for me. I fly into a lot of smaller airfields that don't have LIDO charts. I could get the charts from national AIPs, but this would be much less convenient, and I wouldn't get georeferencing.
August 3Aug 3 Depends on the use you give to the sim.If I used it ONLY for soaring I wouldn't brother... Learning to fly gliders since 1980AMD Ryzen 5600x, 32GB DDR4, RTX 3060Ti (8GB), GIGABYTE B550 AORUS Elite AX V2 mobo, 1TB + 500GB nvme m.2 disks

Because "subscription" for me reads like "I pay money". Which I do not do as I hate subscription models. However, I am a Simbrief and hence free Navigraph user. So if usage is considered a "subscription" then my "no" count to the poll is wrong and would need to say yes.EDIT to avoid ambiguity the poll should (have) read likeI use a free Navigraph subscription (Simbrief)I use a paid Navigraph subscription (AIRACs)I do not use any Navigraph service Edited August 3Aug 3 by DAD Phil Leaven i5 10600KF, 32 GB 3200 RAM, ASUS 4070 12GB EVO, Asus ROG Z490-H, 2 WD Black NVME for each Win11 (500GB) and MSFS (1TB), Rolling Cache 16GB, Photogrammetry always OFF, Live Weather and Live Traffic always ON, Res 2560x1440 on 27"

But if you pay for it it has more than just airac in it tho
August 3Aug 3 I took a Navigraph subscription to update my NavData. Now I am using BATC and since I really care about AI I upgraded my subscription so I can use the FR24 integration as well...

Like you, I take "subscription" to mean that one is paying money at regular intervals. And while Simbrief requires a (free) Navigraph account, it doesnt require a Simbrief subscription.
August 3Aug 3 Even as a GA only flyer, I subscribe. I'm not a fan of subscriptions with flight sim in general because I do take long breaks from time to time. However Navigraph is just something I use every flight. I could probably get most charts and everything else somewhere, but it is all in one spot and easy to use. ------------------------- Craig from KBUF

And while Simbrief requires a (free) Navigraph account, it doesnt require a Simbrief subscription.that's my point. Hence I answered "No" to the poll. But after some praised the Simbrief functionality (for good reason!) I felt that the poll may not show the right results if "subscription" is interpreted as either "have account" (which I do) or "have paid subscription" (which I don't).
