Announcing New Voyager? FreeFlight?, the
Perfect Upgrade from Other Free Flight Planners
Seattle,
WA May 12, 2006. Seattle Avionics Software announces
the immediate availability of new Voyager FreeFlight. Voyager FreeFlight is a
completely free yet powerful and easy-to-use flight planner based on the
award-winning Voyager Flight Software System. Voyager FreeFlight works whether
connected to the Internet or not; it shows flight over terrain; it automatically
downloads current weather, NavData and TFRs; and it comes complete with more
than 160 aircraft profiles.
The software can be downloaded from Seattle Avionics Web
site at
http://www.seattleavionics.com
New Voyager FreeFlight is a
streamlined version of the Voyager Flight Software system that retains many of
the powerful features of the full Voyager product and is faster and even easier
to use. These features include both
Victor and GPS Direct autorouting, a profile view that shows your flight over
terrain, automatic background weather downloads, various weather overlays
including NexRad radar and altitude-sensitive cloud tops (satellite images),
full DUAT briefings, kneeboard printouts, electronic flight plan filing, and
much more.
In addition, users can
test-drive any feature of the full Voyager Flight Software System with a click
of the mouse. Users even can instantly upgrade to the full Voyager Flight
Software System without downloading or installing anything new so they lose no
investment of time or learning as their needs grow. These additional features,
called Modules, include the SmartPlates IFR Procedure Management module, the
GlassView moving-map module, and SmartPlan advanced flight planning modules.
?Given the rising cost of
100LL, we thought that pilots could use something for free -- a free upgrade
from the flight planner they're currently using,? said Steve Podradchik, CEO. ?We want to introduce the majority of
pilots to what comprehensive flight planning can do while keeping things quick and
simple. With FreeFlight, we think we?ve found a great combination of price,
features, and ease of use that will appeal to almost every pilot.?
