Thanks for this very well thought software. The possibility to link the text of the flight plan to pictures is very practical (I added not only flight plan details but also checklists and technical information about the PA28R).
I have however a small suggestion: It would be quite neat for raw VFR simulation, GPS-less,
to be able to hide the plane on the world map, while keeping the display of the flight plan.

+1 Yes please, a very important feature for me. Without the possibility of hiding the plane position, I am not going to consider buying EFB.

I started to look into this but then it became quite difficult since the whole moving map code is designed to recenter where the plane is on a map, so not so easy to remove.

Hi, just a thought as a possible work around. Could you do a screen grab of the map area you're flying in and "not" make it a moving map? This would then be more inline with having a paper map sitting on your lap in a real world flight. You would of course have to manually scroll the map along your route as you go, but in the real world pilots have to refold their maps as they progress along their flight path too.

That's what I do currently : for each leg of the flight plan, I grab it to a map. However, the global map has lots of details, and would be useful. |

Added in V1.14. On next opening, you will see an option to upgrade.
After the second tabbed page on the Publish window has an option to hide the plain position
