How about SPOT, XCskies, DrJack?

Hi I have recently released a new simple App called NOTAMs. Simply
enter an origin, destination and alternate and you will be given
NOTAMs for the each of these fields, fields en-route and and the
FIR's. What's more, if a NOTAM text cotains a coordinate, it is
plotted on a map along with the route. Usefull since I hate looking up
all those little places I have never heard about.
It is designed for use use in light aviation but I suppose it can be
used by glider pilots. ( I know.. I have been flying gliders for over
20 years now!)
