I just looked for that feature, Andrew, and couldn't find it. Could you give us a little more detail on where it is? Jim "Andrew Sarangan" wrote in message oups.com... Airnav has a feature where you can search airports between two user-specified radii. However, the maximum radius appears to be 200NM. So, you can search airports between 100NM and 200NM. Check out the link to aeroplanner than Steven posted. Looks to be much better than Airnav in this regard at least. Matt |

Find a database of airports, including lat/lon coordinates. Load them into
Excel. Find a formula to calculate distance between 2 points. Put a column into the spreadsheet with the calculated distance from your airport. Sort by distance. "Matt Whiting" wrote in message ... Does anyone know of a good way to locate airports that are 200 miles or more from a given airport? I realize a large planning chart with a circle drawn would be easy, but I don't have one of those handy. I need to plan a 200 mile cross country for my commercial day/night long cross country and want to look for airports at least 200, but less than say 300 miles from KELM. I figure someone somewhere knows of software which will do this, but I'm not away of any. Matt |

Google maps... looks like Minneapolis, Omaha are too far.
There is a distance calculator at http://www.airnav.com/airport/KLEM "Matt Whiting" wrote in message ... | | Does anyone know of a good way to locate airports that are 200 miles or | more from a given airport?

Sounds like I'm too late, but...
AOPA has a Radius Search for airports within xxx miles of another aiport. I realize that's the inverse of what you are looking for, but when it is done searching, it lists the results in distance order. So you could search for airports within 250 or 300 nm of your starting point, and then scroll immediately down to 200nm as a starting point...

Sorry for the delay getting this posted, but it's exactly what the original poster asked for http://aviationtoolbox.org/old/cross-country.cgi I'm surprised nobody remembered this. Kyler's been wonderful about sharing his efforts, at no charge, with the rec.aviation.* crew. Too bad everyone seems to have forgotten him. -Jack |
