With Jeppesen stopping the availability of Jepp FD for chart viewing, I am looking for other options for using Jeppesen charts. They are pushing me to using Foreflight, which I can do, but as I already use fltplan.com, I would prefer not to have to switch and relearn another system. My question is for those who use FD, what are you going to do?
Thanks, (Username Protected). -

I just started using Foreflight a few day ago, and really enjoying using it while getting to grips with it.
Your charts and manuals are all there as long as your subscription is still active. You get great 3D views of all airports, the weight and balance is good, and it also recommends Airway routes to fly between destinations. Another great feature is the flight level options, which shows you time to destination and fuel burn, depending on which flight level you choose. -

Foreflight is very user friendly and has extremely accurate performance numbers for a wide range of aircraft.
so...we end up using both.
