Default Fast online flight planner


I have put together a free online flight planner which GA pilots migh
find useful: 'fly.dsc.net' (http://fly.dsc.net).

It's somewhat unusual in that it instead of using a database of onl
aviation waypoints you can plan using any place as a waypoint. Thi
means it is good if you want to fly to a small town or city and yo
don't know which is the closest airfield. Similarly if you want to se
a METAR or a TAF but you don't know which is the closest reportin
station.

Most of all it is meant to be super-fast and easy to use.

Whilst this was built from a UK pilot's perspective, it does have
global database, so my question is, is it useful to US pilots? Give
that US pilots already have a wide-range of systems from which to use
does this add anything? I am pretty confident it is faster than thing
like aeroplanner, but then it is much less functional. It i
deliberately non-graphical to allow access using mobile data solution
(e.g. cellphone & laptop)
