  1. Yes, you're right. I forgot this option and tried it. It is a little bit too late for me, because Pro-ATC/X seems to create the pln file only after the clearence. But that has nothing to do with EFB. Finally to say, I have a big mySQL database with over 1000 flights and I have created a php script these days which exports all that flights into the efbr file format. So I can open all flights as Company Routes so this topic is finished for me At this point I agree with Clorix. Yes, the overview isn't a core funktion for an EFB (I think, haven't seen a real EFB yet). But I think some/many of us are doing their flight planning manually with tools like SkyVector and it is/was so helpfull to find possible entry and exit points for the route and I do not know any other software/tool with this great useful function. Additionally I (and I think many others) do not want to buy two or more products to cover all phases of a flight. I do not need a chart viewer (like from NavData Pro or Navigraph) because EFB has all necessary data from the AIRAC and my sim, puts them together and I can call them up whenever I need them in any flight phase including the flight planning. At this time I consider to keep both EFB versions active. EFB 1 for the flight planning and EFB 2 for the flight itself. Not the best solution (especially to keep both program data up to date) but as Clorix said, the overview is just so helpfull. Best regards Karsten
  2. Works with the default and with Navigraph 1807 here
  3. First I also want to congratulate you for this new version. But I have to agree to most of Clorix objection. I used the EFB not only inflight, but also to plan my routes. The SID/STAR overview combined with SkyVector was a great solution to find my personal routings. At this time I'm very unsure if I buy the new version or stay with v1 because of this feature. I also think, there are some windows which aren't really touch friendly. For example if I select a proc I have to apply it to the flight plan and then press the x to close the window. Perhaps it is possible close the window auto close the window by clicking "Set FPL". I also noticed that it isn't possible to scroll down a checklist with one finger, but perhaps it is a bug because a "zoom in" or "zoom out" gesture (with two fingers) will scroll the list up and down. It would also be great to have a "Close" button at all windows for touch operation. It is not really comfortable to hit the small x. Another wish is that it would be possible to directly open pln flightplans created by other tools. Until now I have imported my routing into Pro-ATC/X and exported the route as a .pln file to open them with Active Sky and EFB 1.But now I have to open a windows explorer to copy the flightplan file manually into the EFB uplink folder to get them. Perhaps you can add a tab within the "create flightplan" window with a flightplan/file list from a preselected folder. Best regards Karsten
