Pros: Company provides everything you need in a single (hardware and/or software) bundle. Simple to use flight-planner.
Cons: No external battery pack option.
Notes: Reviewed on a Tungsten E2. The free (trial) version only allows you to operate the GPS in simulation mode.

| "I am a commercial pilot from Northern Saskatchewan Canada. I fly Piper Navajo's, Beech King Air's, and a Mitsubishi MU-2 all over the North American continent, from the Arctic ocean to Texas, low level and highlevel airspace. I have been flying with a Palm Pilot for years to help me with flight planning and weight and balance calculations. For the last 4 months I have been using your program on my Palm Tx and a bluetooth GPS. It is a joy to use all the different maps and switch back and forth between the maps by the touch of a button! I really enjoy the wealth of information available just by touching the screen with my stylus. I just received version 2 and there was even more info about waypoints, intersections, facilities, airways and air-spaces and now we have vertical navigation! Not a day passes that I do not use AeroPalm. {version 2.0}" |

| "I have been using CoPilot/FlightMaster for over two years - and happy. I would like to see approach plates integrated into the program. Surprisingly all available approach plate software is ONLY for the Pocket PC to my great dissappointment. What are you going to do about it? {version 1.2}" |

| "These two products are the best iterations in the marketplace. For those who don't wish to bother with the integration and are seeking a 'turn-key' solution there is no better. I have flown full IFR legs using this with precision surprising my safety pilot as we learned about these / this product. Very well done, the gold standard. {version 1.2}" |

| "My apologies for the (above) mistake. These are indeed GREAT products and I'm glad to see this company is promoting them to more "Palm" pilots. {version 1.2}" |

"Looks like someone is ripping off CoPilot and Flight-Master." {version 1.2}
Developer Response: "The AeroPalm package is a result of a cooperative effort by the developer of CoPilot, the developer of FlightMaster, and Midwest Sport Aviation, LLC, a company founded to market Sport Planes as well as other aviation products. Both parties recognize that there is a need to provide a fully integrated, tested and supported configuration in order to simplify the installation and configure of this solution. The developers are being appropriately compensated for every AeroPalm GPS unit that is purchased." |
