This means that all the tools offered by GoodWay are also still directly usable in X-Plane. It is still integrated in with X-Plane V10 and V11 64Bits in a plugin (no 32bit version). At the time the developer noted that there was a new version in v5 coming soon to clear away all the cobwebs and create a totally new modern version with a long list of new features, development went on for a few years and then the whole deal just sort of fizzled out.īut here now is that newly released v5 Goodway flightplanner. Goodway used line vector drawing and not the complex (online) maps to create navigation routes and then loaded them directly into the aircraft, so the flightplanner was not an external system but a built into X-Plane plugin, with all those benefits.īy the end of the last decade the v4 Goodway was feeling a little out of date and was not updated to keep up with the advances in the simulator, so it became buggy and outdated. The Goodway Flightplanner was all the rage back in the days of early X-Plane versions onwards from 2003 because it was A - good, B- easy and most importantly C - Fast. If anything can show that you are a long time user of the X-Plane simulator, then it is the word "Goodway". But it's a competitive market, and if consumers get uncertain about one phone, there are plenty others to choose from.Plugins - Goodway v5 Flight Planner Released And, admittedly, there has only been one Droid 2 injury so far. That may not be a problem if Motorola can continue to ride the Android wave. But only the consumer products will go with Motorola Mobility. The company's home segment, which, last quarter, made $49 million in operating income, has two parts: consumer set-top boxes and modems, and broadcast and cable network equipment.

That's down from the previous year's $216 million, but, golly, sales of $2 billion and a multi-million dollar loss? At what point does the company have enough sales or operational control to make money? In its last reported quarter, Motorola noted that the mobile devices group saw sales of $2 billion - up 20 percent from the previous year - but still had a $43 million loss. And that organization's financials show nothing of the strength of a Google or Apple. Motorola's phone and set-top box groups spin off as Motorola Mobility on January 4. Various Apple (AAPL) iPhones and iPods have overheated, and there have been various problems with the iPhone 4, though, again, not safety related.īut a Google or Apple has the resources to deal with problems and remain stable. Google's (GOOG) Nexus One had a rash of them, though none associated with user safety.


It's not as though companies don't run into problems with their products.
