I was contacted by a young South African guy who worked for me last summer and he just bought an iPad and would like a map app for South Africa.

I told him that I use SkychartsPro but doubt that they'd have SA maps.

So, what do the rest of you Afrikaners use down there?

Thanks,

SA Maps

How about Easyplan, they have recently launched an App for iPad and iPhone.I think the full version costs a few Rand but he can download the trial first and see if it will suit his needs. Just go to App Store and search for EasyCockpit. Hope this helps!!

Here in Europe perhaps the most popular flight planning system and charts for IPAD is Sky Demon.

They also have charts for South Africa.

There is a 1 month free trial so it is easy and inexpensive to check it out.

Here is the link
