Hi guys,

For what it's worth my system for IFR planning is use either the UK SRD or Autorouter to plan a route and then trace it out in SD's airways mode. I then create a (VFR) flight plan and copy the text from that into the route section of EuroFPL and run a route checker on it. When it comes up with an approval I store that for filing. 

As SD can only show the AIP plates I download and 'print to .pdf' the Jeppesen plates from Navigraph. Comparing these with the AIP charts for currency and accuracy means they can either be stored within the 'user document' section or printed to paper. 

Before anyone gets excited about using a flight sim site for approach charts, be aware that it's now very common amongst the GA / IR  fraternity and so long as the charts have been checked they are regarded as good for use. I pass my full IR each year with them.

Having filed the plan through EuroFPL I then load the route to my Avidyne IFD direct from SkyDemon. I then fly with SD mostly in VFR mode (but airways if necessary) and make most route adjustments on SD first before updating the IFD to follow.
