Microsoft Flight Simulator X: Steam Edition logo This is a massive step in the right direction as the popular gaming client looks to expand its list of simulation software over the coming years, with this updated equivalent of the incredible flight simulator – with one of the biggest modding communities active for any game – giving you some fantastic new features and updates to the game model that makes it more enjoyable than ever before. Then go fly and monitor progress on the moving map.As one of the finest flight simulators ever made, it’s no surprise that there has finally been a release of Microsoft Flight Simulator X on Steam. What I used to use EFB v1 for (now mostly LittNavmap) is to import a route description from Flightaware, create a clean flightplan without procedures, export to PMDG, and use the EFB charts to help with programming the PMDG FMC Dep/Arr pocedures. Unfortunately the translation of the V2 manuals into English leaves a lot to be desired which doesn't help getting to grips with the thing. So is it just for the charts and moving map? I have EFB v1 but in recent times have been using the freeware LittleNavmap that seemed to do everything that EFB v1 did except perhaps for more detailed airport layouts which can assist when a taxiing at complex airports. Apologies for resurrecting an (oldish) thread but what do folks use EFB v2 for? It doesn't claim to be a flight planner but has some flight planning features but then having created your flight plan you can only export it to FSX/P3D or the native EFB V2 format no other exporters are supported (they were in v1 - go figure).
