Great, just what we need. Bloated java crap when trying to submit a plan on a dodgy connection.

The website is a *huge* improvement over what you have now and I doubt you will miss NAIPS for windows for even a second.
The only issue is the 3rd party apps getting very little time to implement and test, as well as some missing features for us. (For now: charts and restricted area briefing)

Command Flight Planner
Just to add to what Bevan and others have said. Command Flight Planner has been modified to allow the user to switch between old and new NAIPS interfaces, and current and new flight notification formats. We intend releasing before the 27 Oct date but at the moment a few missing (upstream) functions and testing interfaces are holding things up. I have seen the new web-based NIS interface and it is indeed an improvement on the old. It has some ability to import information from NAIPS for Windows but I cannot comment on its utility in that regard. Cheers, Chris

Any updates on how IOS and Android software is looking come Monday? I use the NAIPS for iphone & ipad app quite a bit - is it likely to be functional when the old system drops dead?
NAIPS update has been approved by Apple. Only 80% of the features re-implemented due to the short time-frame given access to the test system. TODO are SPFIB and cancel/amend plans.
Couldn't get Apple to do an expedited review of OzRunways, so that will be a week before weather is working again in it.

AVPLAN Ipad/Iphone App ready for NAIPS changes
Wow NAIPS flight planning finally made it to the web. 10 years too late
If you get sick of the crap (but slightly improved new) ASA NAIPS Internet Service raw text interface use the AVPLAN app on Ipad or Iphone.
It's passed full ASA testing with the NAIPS briefing/plan submission changes planned this weekend.
In the 21st century systems should consolidate,link and graphically display information for us. NAIPS raw text briefing/flight planning is a poor presentation of a huge amount of information.
AVPLAN is like a good flight ops/planning department preparing you a professional customised briefing pack - without the paper!
Do yourself a favour and get a pilot productivity tool like OzR or AVPLAN , invest a little time in reading the manual and get lots of time back to go flying...
If we have to change this weekend turn it to your advantage

Looks like NAIPS still not working - can't login via web and us App developers still can't reach the live server either.
Maybe someone should call briefing to get an updated NOTAM about the outage...

Edited: actually they will now. We've flicked back to the old interface:

I hear the TAB was paying out $0.90 on Airservices not getting the new NIS working for today,
So now we have all this updated software that won't work......

Confirmed - they have reverted back to the old system for the next couple of days:

Not sure what you mean there Morno - In AvPlan's case (and others too I assume) the old interface is operational and still works.
We'll wait and flick the switch over to the new interface when it is ready.
My only concern now is testing the flight plan 2012 changes, and getting that ready for the 12 of November. This delay means the time frames to get that in are even further compressed.
We've written the code, but it remains untested. Until we can test we cannot submit to Apple and have it in the hands of our customers in time. Apple approved the last update in 9 hours, and I am unsure that they are going to do it again...
Fun times, to be sure!
