For Web use, Duat.com (Data Tranformation Duats) has a nicer interface (IMHO)
than duats.com. You can even save favorite routes and other information
Duats.com (CSC Duats) does however have the Cirrus software that works great,
although you need to login interactively to save (up to 5 or so) airplane
profiles before using them with the software. Their webpage stores aircraft
profiles too, but IIRC they are separate than the aircraft profiles you use
from the interactive (and cirrus) login.
CSC Duats requires flight plans to be filed by the user that logged in. DTC
allows you to specify another pilot. This is especially useful for an
instrument student; she can file the flight plan from her account and specify
her instructor has the pilot if she desires.
For both systems, I recommend setting up a customized user ID that you can
easily remember (old telephone number perhaps) so you can always login from the
XYZ fbo.
