Default Flight Planning Software - Blackberry

Hello All,

I pulled the crazyest stunt that I have ever done. I am becoming an Airplane Owner for the first time next week. The winning ship is a 1958 model Mooney M20A.

Having a background in technology I am looking for the easiest possible way to do flight planning through my Blackberry. I can do so many other things I can not imagine why this wonderful tool could not come up with a flight plan and weather for point A to point B. The key is finding the available software.

Requirements:

- Preferably Free
- Should be able to compute Victor airways or direct line with two points.
- Should be able to retrieve weather enroute for that route.

I have been out of GA for quite a while so I expect a bit of a learning curve.

Thanks in advance for your insights.

Cheers,
IW

www.fltplan.com It's not totally formatted for blackberry, but that's what I use. If you switch to "Desktop" view, it's easier to get around in.
