I use Skyvector for all my initial planning.
-------- Original Message -------- Subject: KR> free/cheap web-based flight planning software?

What's the consensus on a good free (or at least cheap) online flight planning software? The ones that were available two years ago could use some improvement. I don't have an iPad so I'm really thinking PC web-based stuff. I've let my FlightPrep subscription expire, and it wasn't the most intuitive stuff I've ever seen. Then I tried AOPA's, but it seems a little dumb...it knows my range but doesn't suggest waypoints. Airnav's fuel finder will do that, but lacks much of a map showing airspace and the kind of things you'd want to dodge, as well as rubber banding around things. My iFly 720 does that, but it's pretty small, and I can't print it out for a reference. You see what I'm fishing for here. I'd consider something that's "not cheap", if it's reasonable and worth it. Any suggestions? I could spend the rest of the day searching and testing, but I'm hoping y'all can save me the trouble, and let me finish hooking up engine control cables (mixture and throttle) and connecting engine sensors on the firewall side. This thing may run two weekends from now!
