Freebird Posted June 28, 2018 Share Posted June 28, 2018 I remember the original developer passed away and it wasn't going to be continued... Has anything else similar come along? Thanks, GO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhantomTweak Posted June 28, 2018 Share Posted June 28, 2018 There's a freeware program named Plan-G thatt functions very similarly, and is for FSX. It works very nicely. The latest, greatest version can be found RIGHT HERE. You might want to give it a look... Pat☺ [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Had a thought...then there was the smell of something burning, and sparks, and then a big fire, and then the lights went out! I guess I better not do that again!

Freebird Posted June 28, 2018 Author Share Posted June 28, 2018 That title/name rings a bell! Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johncott Posted June 28, 2018 Share Posted June 28, 2018 Little Navmap is awesome. This is what I use and it is free. There is a program called FSTramp that is similar to and I think is an updated version of FS Navigator. You get 20 free flights and then you pay so much to use for a period of time, 1 to 4 years ranging in price from $51.18 CAD for 1 year to $136.48 for CAD for 4 years. You never really own it.

MaxLegroom990 Posted June 29, 2018 Share Posted June 29, 2018 I appreciate the tips on replacing FSNavigator. I've missed it for flight planning, as you can spend a fair bit of money and still not get something as easy to use, or modify.

CRJ_simpilot Posted June 29, 2018 Share Posted June 29, 2018 There's also FS Commander. I'm about to test it in FSX tonight. OOM errors? Read this. What the squawk?

benibaz Posted June 29, 2018 Share Posted June 29, 2018 I have FSC10,FS Tramp,LittleNavMap and G-Plan,but out of the four my favourite has to be Little Nav Map because of it's simplicty in flight planning especially for VFR which I mainly do.

CRJ_simpilot Posted July 1, 2018 Share Posted July 1, 2018 Cool, let us know if you like it or not! Thanks for all input, guys. Well, after testing FS Commander, I didn't care for it. It's well featured though. I'll still use LittleNavMap instead. OOM errors? Read this. What the squawk? An awesome weather website with oodles of Info. and options. Wile E. Coyote would be impressed.

tgon Posted July 7, 2018 Share Posted July 7, 2018 I've used FS Navigator since day one and it's been terrific but I know it is never going to develop any further. I've dabbled in LNM before but now want to use it as a replacement so we'll both learn together [emoji39] I normally plan flights in FSX and fly with Radar Contact 4 to have the company of a copilot and ATC so I'm unsure how I can take best advantage of LNM?

[emoji848] Hello Phil,if you plan your flight in LNM, you have the option to save the plan in different formats and then you can open the plan in FSX.I use LNM mainly for VFR,but IFR plans can be made also.Barry.

Freebird Posted July 12, 2018 Author Share Posted July 12, 2018 Thanks Barry. Ill probably need to start a new thread asking for help soon [emoji39] Me too! I installed it and haven't had time to dink with it.... Not to mention, there's no icon/entry on the Menu Bar or even an icon on the desktop. I've been real busy though and just haven't had any time to learn it. GO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GO Hello Freebird,once you have downloaded the latest version,open the zip and place the complete folder (away from Program Files(X86))preferably on another drive and then open the folder where you will see the icon(Little Nav Map)just below LICENSE,copy the icon to your desktop.Barry.:) Windows 10 Pro MSFS2020 FSX Acceleration Intel i7-3770 @3.4GHz Nvidia GeForce GTX 1650 16GB RAM EVO SSD 500GB Seagate HDD 2TB Vatsim 1303381 P1(PPL) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
