Integration into FSX?

Hi,

Firstly, thanks for the great app! Having been used to FSNav is FS9 one of the great problems with FSX was lack of a decent flightplanner - now well & truly solved. I have a question - can't see it having been asked before although there seems to be similar ones all around it - Is there any interest on the developers part in integrating Plan-G into FSX in a similar way  FSNav displayed in previous versions? ie a hotkey that brings the plan-G screen up whilst running FSX in full screen (Doesn't need to display the aircraft position speed etc, IMHO - that was a "cheat" feature of FSNav). It would be really handy to be able to use it inflight like a chart, to check airspace, ATC/Nav/ILS frequencies, etc. I did read the good advice stating that you can run them simultaneously in windowed mode and alt/tab between apps, but that is not very practical in full screen mode. If it's a no-go, no-biggie. Just thought I'd ask.

Thanks again guys

I don't believe it's possible -- otherwise, after 4 years, someone would have done it...

It is possible as you can do it with FSMap. It also uses a hotkey.

FSMap contains a GPS gauge that needs to be integrated into an aircraft panel. Not the same thing. The main app runs outside FS, just as Plan-G does.
