With all of the new EFIS(Electronic flight Instrumentation Systems), has

this would be a good help answer post flight review questions. Al CFIAMI

I created an incredibly simple GPS playback mechanism. It just showed
the position on a moving sectional image and printed the speed, etc.
but I can certainly see how it would be useful.

It should be fairly simple to feed GPS data ingo FlightGear. I'll be
surprised if someone hasn't done it already but I don't recall hearing
of it.

I write the same thing for my Pocket PC a year or so ago. It takes as
input a (manually) geo-referenced .jpg of a map and a text file of raw
NMEA data from my GPS. I could spend a little time cleaning it up for
public consumption if there's interest.
