Hi,

I downloaded iFlyGPS for Android and really love it.  However I'd really like to see a NavLog with forecast winds aloft corrections (ie. magnetic heading and GS), similar to Avare and Garmin PIlot.  Right now I have to get the NavLog from Skyvector, and then re-enter the route into iFlyGPS. 

Am I missing something, or is this a feature that could be added in future versions?

Thanks.

Like this?

If so, Map Mode>Hi-Res Winds  Place a check in the box.  Use the slider that will then be displayed to select the altitude, and time for the (forecast) winds.

If I understand what you are asking, I think iFlyGPS does it. If you go to the flight plan page, you will text on the bottom just before the buttons that either says "Estimate includes winds" or estimate excludes winds. It's a toggle. The "More Options" button on the bottom includes an option to select an altitude optimized for winds.

Thanks so much - this is what I was looking for.
