This is truly a loss to this community. I use it on a daily basis and this service needs to continue. Like Eric said, I will not cancel my membership, but I will not be quiet about this either!

Hello William,
There is a User Guide on the Help page within iFlightPlanner here: https://iflightplanner.aopa.org/My/Help/
There are also feature demo videos published in a playlist on our YouTube Channel here: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLQCVVyDKYo3KCozuA1aAqbN43sMtuU-az
To rubber band the route line, start by left clicking directly on the route line where you want to move it. This will insert a blue “LL” icon (LAT/LON) into the route. Once that point has been inserted into the route, you can drag the blue icon to any new point on the map. A pop-up window will appear when you drop it and provide a list of nearby waypoints to choose from or, you can just leave it as a LAT/LON point. You can also drag any existing blue waypoint icon to another location by dragging the icon itself to the desire spot.
Let us know if you have other questions and we’ll be happy to assist.

I am an avid user of desktop Flight Planner and lament its loss. So now that a change is being forced upon us, AOPA, please seriously consider adding a "fuel stop" feature so we can include one or multiple stops to an overall flight plan instead of having to determine stops for each leg.

Hello James,
If you are not seeing a map at all, then it sounds like something is not working correctly on your system. iFlightPlanner uses FAA sectional charts and allows direct rubber banding of the route line as you would expect. It is probably easiest to assist you over the phone so we can better determine what might be happening in your instance. You can reach our pilot information center techs at 800.USA.AOPA (872.2672) 8:30 a.m. to 6 p.m. Eastern time, Monday through Friday.
A user guide and video playlist that demonstrates all features are available as well via these links:

I read the notice of the impending demise of the flight planner with great dismay. As a couple others have remarked, it is one of the main reasons I continue paying dues to AOPA. Flight Planner was (and is) a great tool. But alas it appears Jeppesen caught AOPA unawares as they have nothing apparently to replace it. As to AOPA value; I fly a Cherokee circa 1968, and thus am a low budget operator by the aviation standards of today. AOPA has tended to the wants and needs of higher end ...

I have used AOPA Flight Planner but it has limited functionality compared to Foreflight and Garmin Pilot. Why waste a lot of resources to try to compete with Foreflight, Garmin Pilot, and their acquisitions? Wouldn’t a more reasonable option be to pursue a deal with the primary players for discounts or even a custom version?

My two cents. I'm very sad to see this go. It's not a perfect tool, but it was pretty good. I used it more than anything else on AOPA's website. I hope you can find a suitable replacement.
I know a subset (probably a large subset) of AOPA members swear by ForeFlight and don't use the desktop planner much anymore. But there are many of us who don't use ForeFlight, and never will (Reason 1: Apple only; Reason 2: Cost). Please continue with your search for a tool that meets the needs of ... more

Hi,
flight planner is one of the most frequency used benefits for me of being a member of AOPA. pls consider this when soliciting membership in the future. If AOPA is for pilots then you should directly support them. Consider strategic partnerships.
