Hi,
I use SD as a professional Helo-Pilot and I think it is the best solution for flight planning/navigation available in europe. There are two things I miss right now:
there a lot of free sources for weather radar overlays. It would be really nice to be able view precipitation radar on the map during flight (perhaps even with lightning data)
it would be very nice to be able to specify a standard height over ground (not altitude) for flight planning. every leg is automatically calculated with a user defined height over the highest point below a leg corridor.
Thank you!
Jens

Hi,
i second this request. I'm currently int he 30 day trial and comparing some solutions (currently using AirNavigation Pro and want to get rid of it). At the Moment Sky-Map and Skydemon are my Favorites. When comparing to Sky-Map the feature i'm most missing in the PC Version (for planning) is an integration of german GAFOR
and rain preciption
data as an overlay (only for planning purposes, not for use inside the aircraft during the flight).
Kind regards
jan
