GlidePlan seems like a great product.


Why do you think they are not legal? The GlidePlan charts are exact
images of *current* sectionals, and are released as soon as they are
available from the FAA.

I create a map booklet containing all the pages I expect to be flying
over so that I have what constitutes current information for
navigating and communicating.

I didn't say glideplan charts weren't legal, they are. The
'chartgeek.com' products use digitally manipulated the charts. In
their FAQ they seem to sidestep the question of legality, neither
offering or suggesting the topic.
