GoldenEagle Flight Prep (It's Free)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Most of you probably know about GoldenEagle Flight Prep, but maybe some newbes like me might want to check it out.
CSC DUATS on the Web
GoldenEagle is Free. don't cost a dime. It is found on the web at "CSC Duats on the Web". Then click on GoldenEagle Flight Prep. It is a flight planning tool that is 100 times better than the one that AOPA has. This one will show you your route over what looks like a sectional. It's got weather, shows airfield runways, kinda like using a gps. Plug in the numbers and it does a weight & balance. Just about anything you could plug into a gps, you can do here. If you plan point a to b, then suddenly remember an enroute stop, you can rubber band the stop into the plan. Does so much, you can't explain it all, got to try it for yourself.
