Been working from Blackberry to ipad

I can't even remember how long I have used this thing but it has worked nonstop the whole time. I fly all the time and often go to unfamiliar places. I typically fly alone and a fair amount of the time night or IFR. Flying is even a commute. How we ever managed with paper charts amazes me. Get a reliable tablet with a cell data plan and you have it all.

This is flight planning made easy and without a suitcase full of paper you have to mess with all the time. This latest rev of the program is the best yet. And with ADS-B in it is great for planning traffic avoidance. Yes one can actually plan to avoid others rather than just dodge them. The connection to and appearance of data from ADS-B seems instant when paired with a Lynx NGT9000.

I also prefer NOS charts and plates to Jep. This is somewhat a religion issue but for me it is just what i grew up with.

Why not five stars? The briefing interface is a bit arcane but no worse than DUATS was. Leidos made a big improvement and I think WingX should too in this area. Part of the issue is not WingX but the NOTAM mess which even the government had complained about.

Drive on Hilton as I hope to have afew more decades of good product.

ForeFlight be Wing X

I have been a long time user of WingX , and hope we very disappointed with the recent release as I had expected a lot more. I just received the “Subscription renewal “ notice about a week ago. I use both Wing x and the Advanced IFR add on. Once I received the renewal reminder , I decided to give ForeFlight a try. After using the 30 day trial for a Cooke or days and getting used to it , I have to say , ForeFlight is light years ahead of WingX. There are a few things I like better with wing x , but that’s probably because I have used it exclusively for 6 years , but Forflight offers so much more in every area , especially in flight planning , finding IFR cleared routes automatically, filing etc. sorry , WingX , I have made the switch to ForeFlight WingX still just doesn’t seem to want to invest in making their product more competitive and feature based.

I Fly By GPS ,

Customer service is almost non-existent - Having more and more issues lately with the app

Just ok, used to be awesome. Customer service has taken a turn for the worse and if you e-mail or call you will get voicemail and they will cal you back in 3-7 days. They used to have the best customer service, now if you have a problem you will wait and eventually decide that maybe one of the competing apps is a better match. I made the switch to a different app but will keep this app installed to see if they bring it around in the future.

Developer Response ,
