Editor's review of AirPlan

• 3.0 stars

• "AirPlan"

• Reviewed by: CNET Staff
• Version reviewed: AirPlan 6.6.3

This in-depth aviation application uses an editable database of airports and navigational aids to help pilots generate cross-country flight plans, but would benefit from a tutorial that helps new users get started. Designed for users with a good understanding of flight planning tools, AirPlan's colorful interface includes a main window for viewing maps and charts, along with a menu bar and map toolbar. Among other things, features include tools to help users automate the process of determining leg distance, fuel consumption, airspeed, time en route, and headings. The program also includes tools for calculating weight and balance, obtaining weather information, maintaining an electronic logbook, generating a moving map, and additional support for handheld GPS units. The cute, but nonessential, aviation sounds can be turned off in the preferences menu. Pilots looking to purchase a flight planning tool may find this 10-use trial helpful.
