Terrible Record for Updates with bugs
The software is reasonably reliable but their updates are terrible for introducing new bugs and then they have to work backwards to fix them. Recently their software needs completely uninstalled manually and then reinstalled which requires to upload all of your extra packs again….extremely time consuming and annoying.

Historic Army Aircraft Flight & RunwayHD
I’ve had the privilege of using RunwayHD for the last few years whilst displaying with the Historic Helicopters and the RAF Chinook Force. This navigation system is very user friendly and easy to use allowing me to dedicate the majority of my capacity to looking outside the cockpit and flying safely rather than navigating. With many additional applications it helps me plan successfully and brief my team clearly before flying. I cannot recommend this product highly enough. A must for all aircrew, professional and private alike.

Un-usable if Sky Echo disconnects
If the Sky Echo disconnects the app has a repeated pop-up that has to be acknowledged. This renders the app useless for its PRIMARY function of navigation until you’ve been “heads in” and navigated the menu system to turn it off. This is UNSAFE.
Yes to a red status bar or even screen surround but nothing that stops you seeing and using the map. So frustrating that it hasn’t been fixed in the latest update despite it being a new “feature” of the last update.

Almost perfect
I love using this app. It seems to be the most well designed aviation app, especially with the range of different charts, including os maps for the UK. BUT, I wish there was a way to edit the route briefing so I could set different altitudes for different legs - I know I can use the virtual radar to add waypoints and drag them up and down but this feels clumsy. I would also love to be able to add extra frequencies to the route briefing. Overall this app works great, and would certainly be worth 5 stars if you could only edit route briefing.

Runway HD
I like RunwayHD a lot but it currently does not download weather as it used to. This limits its functionality to an extent. However still a great flying APP to have on your phone as a backup.
