Pocket Flymap is the base s/w, (you do not need flyman if you have a suitable PDA)

Flymap Win is the flight planning s/w

Pooley's Flight Guide is the electronic version, with updates

I have not yet bought it, but I am quite close.

As discussed on another thread, I've just ordered pocket flymap + Pooleys, hold yer horses a few weeks, and I'll post some kind of review of it.


In the meantime, I also like Navbox proplan for a simple bit of European flightplanning software.

Has anyone tried the new MemoryMap Personal Navigation Device yet? It has a 3.5" colour screen and can use the CAA charts.

There is a world in difference in cost of NavBox Pro & FlyMap. They aren't really compeditors. FlyMap is way more expensive because it is a GPS solution as well as flight planning.

If you are considering a full flight planning & GPS system, then you should give PocketFMS a look. Perfect for VFR, but doesn't do airways. You can get a 30 day free trial at www.pocketfms.com
