### 5/5 — Low cost, functional VFR flight system

*2021-11-12*

Getting better with every update. Have had the system for almost a year and used it for trips from Iowa to Nashville, North Carolina, and Colorado twice with no issues. It is a good, easy to use VFR system. Ken Woodraska

### 5/5 — Best Value out there!

*2021-09-11*

I’ve been a FlightView user for over a year now and have really been impressed with all the features.  When I bought the FlightBox system I knew that I was an early beta tester and was expecting some growing pains.   There were fewer issues than expected and Steve always responded quickly with fixes.  Now that he has officially released to the App Store I’m looking forward to future feature enhancements.
