Default Profile view of flight plan

The old AOPA flight planning program had an option to show a profile view of your flight. It was very helpful for showing ground clearance, airspace concerns, ect. Is there another product that has this option ?
It would be very helpful for us VFR pilots if they could also show the cloud levels on the profile view!

Click on this link to go to the Seattle Avionics website and download the free version of Voyager:

Actually Seattle Avionics is the company that AOPA contracted with to build their FlyQ flight planning app. From what I saw of FlyQ they basically re-branded Voyager for AOPA. Voyager should have pretty much everything you were used to seeing on the AOPA app.

I talked to Seattle Avionics tech support just after FlyQ came out. He said FlyQ did not have all the features of Voyager, but that they would be added over the first year.
