It is my habit to print a plog, take it to the aircraft and enter the route into the Garmin. Not an unusual way of operating.

This does not work with Skydemon since no lat/longs are shown on the plog except for user points.

Obviously VORs etc are ok since they are normally in the GPS database. The problem occurs with visual points, cities etc

Humbly suggest another tickbox in the print route dialogue "Always show lat/long" or maybe an option with "show RNAV"

NB Very good program IMHO

Not sure which garmin you have and whether its removable from plane. If yes its really easy to transfer route from SD to Garmin; can even do it with an old Pilot 3 via usb/serial converter. 296 and upwards is via USB cable.

Data transfer takes about 10 secs.

Need to remember that it does clog up your garmin with waypoints but these can be removed from time to time very easily (and by category).

Cheers
