Efb v1 was my bees knees and got alot of mates onto it. To see this information was a huge game changer in having one program telling you all this info and having it very prominent. To now have that missing and in pop up windows in my opinion is a step backwards. If efb can have it so the windows can be opened the dragged into a prominent area then you have me sold on v2. Too many wi ndows need popping open to view info. The more info you have for your flight the better it will be in my opinion.

Ben, no, you don’t need to open a window to see the frequency and heading of your arrival runway. It occurs automatically when your aircraft enters the STAR.
As an example, yesterday I flew from EGKK to LFPG and had previously selected the arrival runway as 08R. As soon as I entered the STAR the Approach plate appeared automatically at the bottom of the display. It shows all the required info including G/A info.
Yes, it’s different to v1 but as good if not better. Certainly selecting the arrival runway is a LOT better than v1.
Might of missed my point. In v1 if you were at your departure airfield and there was active atc at your arrival it would show very prominently in the frequency table on top of the page. You dont get that now. My suggestion to the developers would be to allow the frequency window to be dragged and dropped into a space you like so its visible and allow efb1 frequency choices back in. Im taliong frequencies only not runway or sid/star selection.

- More prominent display of information: The way EFB v1 displayed chart information was very good. Things like frequencies, restrictions, courses, etc. were MUCH more prominently displayed, using bold font and larger text size. As it is now in v2, those same items are displayed in something like a 12pt, non-bolded style making it very difficult to find those items at a glance.
This I completely agree with. The frequency display was very announced in EFBV1. Showed what frequency was currently at all arrival and departure airfields and was there to see. Now you have to open up a window to see it. I'm staying with V1 for this very reason. Too many windows need opening and no were to drag and drop them into a place were it is prominent. Its gone backwards in this area in my opinion.

My suggestion would have it fold down from the top of the screen like the dep/approach does from the bottom of the screen.

Is it just me or do people prefer the old radio panel were it was displayed on the page and not the pop up screen, Much easier to read especially when on Vatsim and seeing the current or upcoming radio frequencies. People's thoughts?

No I clicked save disc icon as per manual then it saved it as a text as per picture above.

I can't seme to get a route made in PFPX to show in EFBV2 company routes folder.
I hit save in PFPX then saved it under the client/routes folder as per the manual. However, the flight plan still does not show in the company route folder in EFB2. Any ideas?

68.71 to be precise. But think about e.g. poor Czech citizens. They will have to cope with 1138.- Czech Koruna ! ?
hmmm lol when other companies are giving 50% off 20% just doesn't cut it. Lost me sorry...

Hi,
Im loving this software. I have been using it alot lately and have found some issues with the charts supplied.
Today I flew into OMDB and found the chart in EFB saying ILS 110.9 for rwy 12R and navigraph charts say 109.5. Went with navigraph and was correct.
There was also another issue a heading degree but will have to investigate that one again.
AIRAC in EFB is up to date.
Any idea of why they are correct or is it something that could be corrected?
Thanks.

Couldn't of said that better myself and I was about too. Why use another program eating memory when V1 had this and now it doesnt (to the same effect). Thus my first explanation and that V2 has gone backwards in this area in my opinion. Question is why do we need it.... because we used to use it all the time when on Vatsim.
