Since neither I nor anyone I know lives at airports, is there a simple method within iFly to find airports that are near my city/town destination? That is, I know the airport designation where I'm leaving from but I only know the city/town I need to fly to. So how do I find that town's airports within iFly? Flight planner does not have that capability that I know of. This always adds extra time and frustration when I need to go somewhere I've never been before. Help, please.
Thanks,

Thanks for the question. Here's what I'd suggest from within iFly. Tap-Hold the desired location on the map, and from the menu select "Search Nearby". This puts you in the mode of finding Nearest Airports to wherever you tap on the map, and provides you with information on each. When you find the one you like, tap "D->" button and it'll create a direct-to flight plan for you. Or you can tap "Flight Plan => Add Waypoint"
You can also tap the "Filters" button at top left on this form, and select to filter your airports based on qualifications for your aircraft.
Hopefully this method gives you what you are wanting.
