Which links to Airnav.com since, as Kyler says "AOPA has taken steps to
ensure that their airport information isn't easily accessed (even by
members), so now I only provide links to AirNav information.".

Does anyone know if a site that provides an "offline" version of the GPS
nearest airport function? I'd like to be able to enter a given city and
find the nearest aiports to that city.

A quick net search didn't turn up anything. Well, I did find a site to
use to locate the nearest Shell station...

Does that somehow affect this situation?

I don't know what AOPA has, but the airnav site is excellent, even
including photographs of the airports. I was impressed.

It really IS impressive.

Try the "Fuel Stop Planner" function that lists the best fueling spots along
your route.
