!!!!NEW VERSION 3.0. Updated airport list system, new design, airport wiki options and more!!!!!

Ever been flying around but then have trouble finding another airport on the map or the next closest one? I have and from there AirGPS was born.

Additional features include filtering airport by type, an option to open the current airport’s wiki page, customized look, custom airport lists, resizer and more!

Also, free updates!

The A button on the list presents the same list.

==========

The HUD:

- Airport Name: The name of the airport.
- Distance & Alt: The Distance from you to the airport and also the altitude of the targeted airport.

- Current Continent: The continent’s name you are currently on.
- Continent Status: The status of the two continents in three categories.
- Same: You are on the same continent as the airport.

- Not Connected: The continent you are on is not connected to the continent the airport is on.

[M] Button: Menu options.

[i] Button: Shows the wiki page of the current airport.

Main

Creating your own airport list:
***Please see the PDF document below or the notecard included with the product.****

==========

Be Aware:
- The list won’t always be 100% up to date. Due to airports constantly changing, it can be hard to keep track of them. I have several resources to try and keep this as up to date as possible, but if you find any that are not, please use the Report Airport feature.
-The pointer only refreshes every second to prevent lag.
- As mentioned previously, there is a hard limit of 250 airports. This is to prevent out of memory issues and long loading times.
- The Scan Closest airport does not automatically update. Since this can cause confusion when between two different airports and the amount of lag it will create sorting airports constantly, you will have to manually initiate it.
