Dead right.
I fly VFR most of the time, with a little IMC now and again.
I use 'fly' and the grea thing is I can access if from the ''thought Police' constrained PC at work or at home. And at the airfield I can just about use it using GPRS (or wi fi when available) on my xda Exec. I can also get met and winds from the Met Office website via GPRS/wi fi on the xda.
I can type any route I plan on 'fly' into my Garmin 196 quite easily and draw it onto my map by hand. This "manual intervention" forces me to make a sense check and to review the planned route against the map.
I hanker after something more sophisticated for the PC, but perhaps such does not exist? I've got enough clunky second-grate shelfware already.
The only thing I lack is some similar pda/handheld GPS combination for IFR.
