Review
Pros: Very well written "glass cockpit" application, Bluetooth, 320x480, high-res support, great backup for those who fly in IMC or older aircraft.
Cons: Application lags slightly (few seconds) due to the GPS delay, slightly expensive ($$$), the aircraft database will only store information on a single aircraft.
Notes: Great backup device to verify instruments or in the case of a failure.
