iFly GPS Forum

Just did a fairly long flight plan and discovered that the only times/distances shown in the list are leg time & distance. There is a total at the end but it would be very handy to have the running total as well for helping to figure fuel stops....not just the fuel used on the leg. Some legs are not stops, just direction changes and adding all that up in your head is annoying. Some way of noting planned stops would help with fuel too. . .I'm looking at a 2 or 3 stop flight here.
I saw that someone mentioned the lack of Airport ID's and that would be nice as well. It would make a flight plan easier to fill out when you have ID's instead of airport names.

Thanks

Great ideas for fuel planning. For those that don't know, you can use many online flight planning tools to create your plan and export these to the iFly. Just save the plan as a GPX file to a thumb drive, put the drive in the iFly, and goto the Load Flight Plan form.

The VST (Vertical Speed to Target) will target the next airport in the flight plan (For this reason you should only put airports in your plan where you intend to land). You can also specify an altitude for any of your waypoints using the flight plan form, in which case the VST instrment will direct you to that altitude at that point.
