Nice airport diagrams from QUEEN CITY, ALLENTOWN, PA. Really nice to see the taxiways at unfamiliar fields with no ground control - no tower.  

With ADSB, you can SEE palnes in the pattern and KNOW if you are going to be able to safely taxi around, even if folks forget to use radios and clear from the ground and from the air, especially at airports with CROSSING RUNWAYS! (like this one, which was also pretty busy)

On this day, the flight school prefered to use the runway that suites them better for ops, but I selected the runway I could take off almost directly into the wind. I waited for a spot to clear and then took off, using visual and ADSB information to do it safely.  Thanks iFly!

Over to the Harrisburg area for an oil change...and used the Airport Diagram to find the COMPASS ROSE on the aerodrome!

Another good use for these REAL VIEW features with the airport diagram overlay!

HERE is one COMPASS ROSE....more elaborate and nicely painted...

And HERE is the ACTUAL, official COMPASS ROSE as per the airfield manager - however, no real directions or headings on it....not too good if your compass is off by over 30-40 degrees - MEH!

The IFly still helped to find BOTH on the large airport....THANKS!

Airport diagram helped me today cross active runways where I had to use multiple lettered taxiways and hold short twice....complicated.

Diagram was a winner! Great help to me.
