AIRNAV not publishing fuel prices...

I, for example, used AirNav from my phone last night. Is the data
worth $100/year to me? Sure. Is it worth $100/year if I have to
use JavaScript and cookies and whatever other garbage to get to it
(thus rendering it unusable on my phone and most of my other
browers) and can no longer post usable links to it? No way.

What Javascript and cookies and whatever? On AirNav?

No, on similar services that switch to requiring authentication in
order to use. The quote above it was
- Great. Would you pay $39/year to continue to use the service?
I assume that you'd verify that users paid, not just go on the honor
system.

Aeroplanner is an example of a system that requires cookies to
authenticate for their service. AOPA is a decent counterexample.
(They permit standard authentication in addition to the cookie
stuff.)

Like I said, I appreciate AirNav the way it is. (But *you* know
that already.)
