- Do you use AirNav?
- YES, all the time. I love it.
- What do you fly, how much?
- I fly a Baron, 250 hours a year.
- What does AirNav do for you?
- I use it everytime I go somewhere. I have saved thousands of
dollars by using AirNav. On this last trip alone I save $150 by
filling up for $1.85 at XYZ.
- Great. Would you pay $39/year to continue to use the service?

- Are you out of your mind??? Absolutely not. I would stop using it.


Who would have thought Baron drivers were that stupid?

I understand that it's fun to call others "irrational" and "stupid"
upon failure to understand their logic, but this decision sometimes
has nothing to do with cost so if you're stuck thinking in those
terms you're unlikely to understand what's happening.

I, for example, used AirNav from my phone last night. Is the data
worth $100/year to me? Sure. Is it worth $100/year if I have to
use JavaScript and cookies and whatever other garbage to get to it
(thus rendering it unusable on my phone and most of my other
browers) and can no longer post usable links to it? No way.

S, it's not a matter of cost, it's the one in a thousand users like yourself
that have an issue under extreme circumstances?

Talk about validating the point about "irrational" and "stupid".
