Flight Star or Destination Direct
Does anyone have an opinion on these two products?
I am debating between Flight Star and Destination Direct. They are both desktop flight planning software that seem to have their individual benefits. Price is not the issue here, only user friendliness and graphics. David ORL/MCO

What are you looking to get out of flight planning besides friendliness and
graphics? You looking for IFR/VFR? Flight plan filling? Why not just use one of the online systems either from the free (well government funded ones) to the pay ones? -byron "Scubadooo" wrote in message ...

I've been using FlightStar for the past year plus. Have tried Aeroplanner
which I make most use of when away from home. I find FlightStar terrific for planning both VFR and IFR flights. Easy, lots of useful features, print out the reports and go.

I like FlightStar. I have a subscription so I get program and database
updates ever 30 days or so. "Scubadooo" wrote in message ... Does anyone have an opinion on these two products? I am debating between Flight Star and Destination Direct.

I am happy with Flightstar and understand that it will be integrated with
Jeppview and Flightdeck next year. Mike MU-2 "Scubadooo" wrote in message ... Does anyone have an opinion on these two products? I am debating between Flight Star and Destination Direct.
