I have used the Topo Atlas for long trips several times, and find that
they are great for that purpose. For more local flying (in-state or adjoining states) I prefer Sectionals. You encounter problems with either type when your position comes to the edge of the map. The only solution to that problem would be to have a seamless map in an electronic display (like a tablet PC). The rub is that you don't really have time to mess with the controls of a PC and fly the plane, too. Besides which there is no good place to put it in the cockpit (unless it resides in the copilot's lap). David Johnson |
