FS2020: Revisiting Navigraph - Is It Worth Resubbing & Is It The Right App For You?

Wishful thinking again. If they are charging around £80 for an annual subscription they are hardly likely to be overwhelmed by the idea of a one-off payment of a similar amount. The whole point about subscriptions for software companies, as I am sure you will appreciate, is that it constitutes a more stable and continuing income stream, whereas a one-off is 'what it says on the tin'. We used to buy the early versions of MSFS and bought updates when necessary / appropriate, but MS moved to subscription with the rest of the herd. I won't be holding my breath for them to revert any time soon unless some unforeseeable commercial disruptor compells them to.

Thanks for the video. Seeing how a Navigraph subscription essentially includes a Jeppesen subscription (though not for real-world use) it is a bargain. For example, digital charts covering USA air space alone costs USD228.90 annually while worldwide coverage costs USD15,611 (albeit for 4 devices and probably some other services a flight simmer doesn't need).

I use Simbrief/Navigraph for IFR and Little Navmap for VFR. The latest versionof Navigraph is packed with great features, many of which were shown in the video. I especially like the feature where it automatically pins the appropriate airports, departure and destination charts when the flightplan is imported. For me, it's well worth the monthly subscription.

It's a subscription service so you are never going to get a one time payment, only monthly or annual subscription options.
I use it on the ipad or second monitor and couldn't be without it. Excellent software.

I use navigraph for VFR. It gives now for most airports the arrival procedures fir VFR.

Over the years I've used many navigation and planning tools (e.g. FS Tramp, Little Navmap, SkyDemon etc.) and find Navigraph in combination with Simbrief, as we speak the most complete navigation and planning tool for simming. Not only IFR though, the latest update (Telemetry and Weather) brings also a lot of VFR flying potential. Navigraph works fine for me on a separate monitor. Yes, I'm in interested in a one off payment for let's say the default software and as a result another type of subscription for the FMS Navigraph Data (AIRAC cycle) uploads.

I would totally buy it if it were a one time payment. Subscriptions are a big no for me, so I'll stick to Simbrief and little Nav Maps for now

Have any Xbox simmers worked out a way to transfer a Navigraph flight plan into MSFS? I plan the flight on my ipad but have to manually enter it into MFSF.

Mr. Huddison, one of the delightful aspects of Navigraph to a newer commercial aircraft flier is that when you are selecting your Route, you can pull up (if you are on Live Weather (in MSFS), you can look at the winds at your destination or origin (in Navigraph), and select the appropriate runway {Navigraph lists them} per actual weather. While selecting SID or STAR (in Navigraph), you can push selection (for Arrivals, Approaches, or SIDS), and it will on the map, display colored routes on the map. A beautiful (and EASY) way to help build your ROUTE. Thanks for your ongoing deployment of useful information. Most Appreciatively, AG.

I have Navigraph set up on my IPad and works brilliantly. Also Simbrief integrates with the ATR, B787, Honda Jet and using the Xbox series X as my platform

Sure looks better than Little Nav Map but since I am poor I can't realy sign up for this even though it would be luvly.

Navigraph is awesome. I've been using it for the last 7 years or so. Up until recently I would have said that I can't fly IFR without it. But now recently they've added VFR too, so it's a great all-in-one package. A one off payment option would be nice, but they're far too clever for that. Is it worth it? I think it all depends on how much flying you do. For me it certainly is. And I STILL haven't even learned about all its features

I have this and it is good but I most always use FSTRAMP.

I pay for it annually to save some money. It’s worth it and enhances your experience but you don’t need it. I like that it’s inside my GTN 750 Premium. I also use LNM but not Simbrief very often.

I love it in the Honda Jet on Xbox. I get a yearly subscription.

Particularly useful with Vatsim. Yes, you can use Chartfox, Simbrief for free, applications like Little Nav Map, and all sorts of things. Yet, free Simbrief doesn't have updated AIRAC cycles so it can confuse the controller at times and cause problems. Navigraph is also great for seeing weather, NOTAMS, real-time plane tracking, and much more all in one instead of 6 different free resources and over all makes Vatsim much more of a breeze. All of that is insanely useful. Especially for new VATSIM pilots that are already overwhelmed enough with comms.

Although I only fly GA aircraft (the biggest thing I use is the Islander or Kodiak) I get loads of value from Navigraph, I think a lot of people who are mainly GA orientated are put off which is a shame.
It's great for IFR planning, ILS knowledge, fuel plannjnb6, there's a very good VFR map and an absolutely excellent weather radar system.
The best GA aircraft in the game, the Piper Arrows also have the ability to hook up to Navigraph, I find myself planning out flights in lunch breaks etc on simbrief, import to Navigraph and I've got them right there in the aircraft when I launch the game :)

For eight quid it's great, I would definitely advise anyone who is I interested at least giving it a try

I believe the vision jet does navigraph, even on Xbox. I fly airliners about 25 percent of the time. Was more but really got hooked with ga planes. I reckon I might give it a month trial. ✌️

YES
