What are people using nowadays for task planning and flight review? I've had SeeYou since the beginning, but I'm finding the latest versions to be so bloated with extra features that it's becoming much less user friendly. Task and waypoint management in particular is becoming a PITA.

My basic requirements are:

- Creating tasks.
- Analyzing flight performance against tasks.
- Multi-flight analysis (maggot races)
- Ability to run offline (many of our contest sites are not well connected)

Go.

Me, too. Bonus points for being able to work with .stx files.

Bigger bonus points for easy task entry (user configurable start, finish, turnpoint type defaults for racing & area tasks) and flight statistics that can be set (by default) to cover only that portion of the flight on task.

You can use an old version of SeeYou for Windows, from around 15 years ago. Simpler, off-line. Does all those things and more. UI not perfect, but better than the new SeeYou Cloud thing which I can't seem to do almost anything in.
