>The fplan application is designed to assist general aviation pilots in
creating flight plans for cross country flights in powered aircraft.
It reads a planfile containing a description of the flight: departure
and destination airports, navigation aids, intermediate waypoints, winds
aloft, fuel consumption rates, and produces a flight plan including
wind corrected magnetic headings, distance, estimated time and fuel
consumption for each leg, latitude, longitude and <A

>Flyway allows the user to find and enter U.S. waypoints (airports, navaids, and fixes), then it calculates courses, wind corrections, and travel times. Information about the waypoints is provided (including frequencies, elevation, fuel availability, and runway descriptions). The route data can also be used to fill in an editable FAA Flight Plan form, fetch basic weather information from the internet, and display a very rough map.</P
