GPSPilot

GPSPilot is an excellent flight planning and interactive map program for the Palm Pilot, especially but not exclusively if you have a GPS module for your Palm. However, like other Palm Pilot flight planning programs, it was missing something - extensive and current airport and waypoint data.

I have written a program to generate waypoint databases from current FAA and military data. You can generate files for any area of the world at the Waypoint Generator. Right now I also am putting some pre-generated files up for download. This is only a first shot at it, so I'd appreciate hearing any problems or constructive comments you might have on it.

Note:GPSPilot only displays the first one hundred points on the screen, so until you zoom in a lot, you'll see a clump of airports and/or navaids on the left side of the screen. Don't be alarmed, the points are in there and can be accessed and put into routes.

Note also that I only have point data (airports and navaids). For downloadable maps and charts, see AeroPlanner.

I'm not affiliated with GPSPilot, although the owner of the company has been very helpful to me. That's why I'm soliciting donations - I spend my own money to subscribe to the FAA data (ask me what I think about the FAA charging for data they should be making available for free some time).
