Flyway allows the user to find and enter U.S. waypoints (airports, navaids, and fixes), then FlyWay calculates courses, wind corrections, and travel times. Information about the waypoints is provided (including frequencies, elevation, fuel availability, and runway descriptions).
The route data can also be used to fill in an editable FAA Flight Plan form, fetch basic weather information from the internet, and display a very rough map.
Here are some key features of "FlyWay":
