Every one who has a chart plotter and also has the program on their computer, try this. Instead of having both the chart plotter and a over sized chart in the cockpit, use your computer to print only routes you plan to take on 8x10 paper prior to going out. That way you can see at a glance your rount without messing with the scale on the plotter all the time and it gives you a quick and dirty look at where your planning to go, and like a book to can flip the pages and go from one route to the next one. Hope this is usefull.
