I get what you are saying.... and on some level I agree. BUT..... since I can assume you have a good data signal, you have Nextrad on the screen showing returns. If you are flying, and want airport info... you are probably close enough to see the weather in front of you. Now.... since I am...

While I understand what you are asking for.... it would complicate a window that is meant for quick info. If I'm flying and want to check on an airport.... it tells me what the winds are doing, Where the clouds are, and if it's VFR or not. For flight planning... all the info ins one more...

If this isnt' in the request part of the forum.... it should be.

Hi all, Over the last few years, I was building a Waiex (Sonex) and the 740b was the main display on the panel. Well.... in Feb, it got it's airworthy cert, and a few weeks ago, I finally got to fly it. The weather around Pitt PA has been bad. Anyway... I just thought I would share one of the...

The bottom USB or a hub on the side?

Hi All, Does anyone know if the USB port on the bottom of the 740b works? Or.... will the 740b's side USB work with a hub and allow more than one device? I haven't tried it.... but was just curious. I picked up a Levil AHRS and figured if I could tie it in the usb port, I could keep my...

I know it has worked for me... but it's not working now. How about just making it a clickable link, and let it open a web browser for use to look at it with? That should be a simple fix.

HI All, Just wanted to let everyone know, I passed my instrument checkride yesterday.... and I was using iFly. So, just wanted to let you all know about the questions asked during the test. Most of the students are using Foreflight, and so is the DPE. 1) He liked the flight plan I made from...

Thanks for the info guys. So.... they bumped my Checkride last tuesday for a PPL student at the school... and he didn't pass. THen, I was supposed to go on the following day. (Bad weather) Then the DPE said he would come back Friday.... Bad weather. I'm going to start my Commercial training...

I just tested this.... since it sees 2 landings, it has a pop-up when I go into the flie page asking if I want to do a partial filing. it will ignore the second landing. so.... it will be in my plan, but doesn't file as the alt. I guess this is a workaround, and I just have to do a manual...

It would... but here again.... if I'm in actual IMC, and I go missed... I would prefer it to be already part of the flight plan. BUT.... not as part of the planned route. I don't write code (other than som embedded stuff) but I figured since there is a pop-up for waypoints/fuel...

Where is the button to show past flight trails?

Hi all, I'm just finishing up my IFR training, and hope to do my checkride on tuesday. I was making a flight plan for the DPE, and I was wondering if there was a "Built in" way to show my alternate airport on the flight plan. I know that I can list the alternate in the "File a plan" page, but...

I just asked about this. Don't hit the "Get Brief" button. Go into "File a new plan" and make sure the time is ok. Then get the brief from that menu.

Yesterday, I was out, and one of the airports was in a valley. I knew there was an ODP, so when I click on the minimums tab.... it shows take off and alternate as an option.... but when I click on those.... it opens to page 1. in my area there was 48 pages to scroll through to find the airport...
