packages are never the way I need them.


With SmartPlates, you can set up an entire state as a "Pack".

Well, it's not free. But when I purchased it, the cost was $100 with no
updates required. So, assuming I will fly for another twenty years, that
works out to less than $0.02 per day.

Just my 2¢ :-)

Amen! The machine I use to do automatically gather weather, do flight
planning, manage the pool, the security cameras, etc. cost $50 on eBay,
the OS and all the applications are Open Source (free); bonus is no
restarts and no virus problems.

I've no objection to Windows and paid for applications; these are fine
for many situations. It's just that I want to keep the software budget
for my air force at $0 (at least not counting the Jeppesen subscription
for the IFR GPS...).


Free is really cheap and highly cost effective
