Verdict
The clearest difference is price: Subnet Plus at Free against FlightDeck PAX's $4.99. Subnet Plus also leads on update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 5 weeks). FlightDeck PAX's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 1) and ads (none vs shown). On device support there is nothing between them.
