I have a wi-fi only Nexus 7. Am I going to need the 3g version to use it aloft do you think (assuking I do all my planning on the ground so pick up wx and Notams in advance)?

Don't see why you would need (or in a lot of cases, be able to get) a 3G signal when aloft.

All it'll need that for is downloading maps, weather, NOTAMs etc. Do all that on the ground with it tethered to your phone.

No because it already has an in-built GPS. 3G may be useful to update enroute weather etc but not essential for navigation.

As I understand it only the ipad has the problem of the wifi only version having no in-built GPS, but even then an external GPS can be used (although only a few are compatible with ipad and are quite expensive).
