I'd like to start better using my 396 and am looking for suggestions.

I'm using the internet to keep the database up to date. I'd like to load
STAR's, routes, etc. using a pc program. Is there a program for doing
this?
I have the auto option with the Mapsource program - is that what I'm
supposed to use to manage aviation routes?

Can I use AOPA's flight planner directly and download?

I realize it's a very useful tool but I'm not using it to it's potential
and
appreciate your comments!


I use Jeppesen FliteStar

You can flight plan with ease and transfer the route to a 396.

Check it.
