Best wishes for the New Year!
I’ve now got my GPS and was wondering if any of you pliots out there use Quick Plan, ProPlan or an other to plan flight routes, weight and balance, wx etc
The difference between Quick Plan and ProPlan is ProPlan allows you to plan the route on your P.C. and then load it onto the GPS, however ProPlan is £79, which is £50 more expensive than the other one.
Does anybody have any experience of these types of products, if so can you recommend any?

Moggy C,
when you have loaded the route into the GPS, when does it become effective, i.e. I have the GPS switched on, I’m lined up for t/o and start to fly the route. Do I have to start the GPS with the route I have loaded, or is it fairly obvious one it’s loaded on?
Cheers
p.s. is there a website that automaticaly puts the wx into ProPlan, or do you just get them from the Met.

I bought QuickPlan and very soon realised that I should have bought ProPlan. The facility to squirt routes and trails backwards and forwards from PC to GPS really is an enormous time and effort saver.
I contacted Navbox, who are top blokes, and they swapped it for me by return of post. I’ve never regretted it.
