One issue that pops up with LNM is I believe the NAVDATA is taken from the original FSX/P3D database - so when things change there are unknown waypoints from time to time. Alex already mentioned that he has the facilities to display airspaces and such - just not enabled yet (currently VOR, NDB, AIRWAYS, JETWAYS, and INTERSECTIONS are included) - so it seems there are more good things on the horizon - it's obviously a labor of love and it's very polished now.

LNM is still a work in progress - hopefully we'll see some aeronautical charts added. I'm pretty sure LNM has an option to save for the GTN - never used it though as the GTN has Airways built into the database which makes loading a Flight Plan a breeze - so I just do that manually. I close the Fltplan website - close LNM - then launch the Fltplan GO app to import my Flight Plan and P3D to navigate off my tablet.

The saved Flight Plan is full FSX/P3D format so I can now load it into AS16/RC4/P3D at will. LNM has complete airport diagrams if you zoom in far enough with all the parking illustrated - when you save - LNM it prompts you to pick a departure spot - I do and save. LNM has a vertical profile window - so I check ground clearance.

Finally - I copy the routing to the windows clipboard.īack to LNM - it has the ability to "Import Flight Plan from Clipboard" - I do that - now the flight plan is loaded. With the Flight Plan saved on the website - I can now load it on my tablet and FltPlan GO. I now know approximately how long it should take with given weather - how much fuel I need for my chosen aircraft - how high I am flying - and how I'm getting from point A to point B. When two airports are chosen - I plug them into Fltplan web site - I actually use their real world profiles for fuel burn so I select the appropriate aircraft (FltPlan seems to have a performance profile for just about every GA Aircraft and Biz Jet ever made) - then the screen comes up with routing - normally I looks for "Last Approved ATC Routing" and choose that for added realism - if nothing seems appropriate I'll look at other routing sources - then save the flight plan. Then start Little Navmap (LNM) - so I can easily pick two airports that have been improved in my sim - as I don't do "default" airports. Sure - doesn't really consolidate much - as I still use both apps.įirst I look at the global weather picture on the NOAA AWC Website - the site has really improved over the years and is very useful now - displays METAR/WINDS/RADAR so I can easily/quickly determine what kind of weather I want to fly in.

If you happen to live in North America and have a tablet - also has a full blown FREE tablet app called "FltPlan GO" (apple, android, windows) Electronic Flight Bag that includes your typical moving map software with connections to flight simulator (FSX/P3D/XP) and is the ONLY source in the world that I'm aware of that offers FREE geo-referenced approach plates and taxi diagrams. It makes planning a flight so much easier - especially when you have a large number of improved airports such as ORBX Freeware and/or ORBX Regions. One of Little Navmap's best features is it can read your scenery.cfg and database all your installed airports - so when planning flights you can choose to graphically display only those improved airports you actually have installed on the included map - if so desired. provides the real world aircraft performance and real world routes - Little Navmap takes that information and generates the necessary files needed for - in my case - P3D.

Personally - I now use a combination of Alex's Little Navmap plus to generate flight plans based on real world flights.
