Overall, JeppView/FliteDeck subscription is the less costly and "legal"
solution for my charts, update, & moving map requirement in a format
that I am familiar with. Plus, if and when I get FliteDeck to work, I
will have the same moving map as those jet pilots.

Only a small percentage of jet pilots have it up and running. The best
installations are the 777 and the new Gulfstream where FliteDeck is
essentially a part of the FMS and multi-function displays.

I agree with your assessments. The moving map in this version is very,
very good. The only complaint I have it some of the airway stuff
disappears at working scales, such as short segment mileages. And, there
are no cumulative "D" DME distances. That's why they still issue us the
paper en route charts, I was told.

Heck, Avidyne has a good setup with the EX500/5000 series and the CMax
Electronic Approach Charts option.

How many light aircraft have Avidyne? Also, that particular hardware still has
to run the old version of FliteDeck because of operating system issues, or at
least that was the case in January.
