Hey, I think we maybe could use a subgroup for Windows iFly?

Appologies if this has already been asked:

I'm starting to use my desktop PC with iFly Windows for planning. Great tool. 

BUT BECAUSE THERE'S NO GPS IN MY DESKTOP COMPUTER THE SECTIONAL STARTS ME OUT LOCATED IN THE CENTER OF THE USA.

Still shows the view there even after I enter a flight plan right on the west coast (I'm based as S03 in Oregon.)

Then I have to tedious zoom out, crab my way to the west coast on the map, finally find the relvant geography, then zoom back in.

IS THERE ANYWAY TO HAVE iFLY WINDOWS, WITHOUT A GPS ACTIVE, DEFAULT TO SHOWING THE MAP CENTERED ON MY HOME AIRPORT, Or better yet, centered on the region with the currently loaded flight plan?

Alex, center the map on your desired start location, then touch Menu -> About -> Start Simulation Mode.  This will recenter your plane.  You can now disable simulation mode, and this will be your new default center.

Thanks Walter.

That works perfectly.

 

Hey....could you take a crack at my other two questions? Or want me to repost them on the Windows subforum?
