new forum look & feel

pink leader — Sat, 04 Feb 2012 11:09:29 GMT

It may be that the new forum has more functionality but its far more clunky looking than before. takes up far more screen space per message and is much harder to see at a glance what is going on.

Filing a flight plan

VMC-on-top — Wed, 18 Jan 2012 16:25:23 GMT

When I file a flight plan, do I get some sort of confirmation that the plan has been filed - like a text or email? Apart from going back online, is there some other means that I can delay or cancel it - like calling somewhere? Also, will the FP complete f

PeteLindstedt — Thu, 12 Jan 2012 17:44:55 GMT

I've decided to acquire a cheap netbook to run SDPlan. I intend to take this with me when touring .

SD Plan requires A PC, Windows 2000 or later. I'm wondering if a netbook running on Windows CE.net would suffice?

Saving in the Cloud

Doober2004 — Sat, 31 Dec 2011 13:24:12 GMT

An option to set alternative default folders in SD Plan would enable routes, aircraft, etc to be saved in a Dropbox folder and then easily saved/accessed/updated/ on any PC. That way I wouldn't end up with different file on laptops and des

VRP's with space letters
