Make Sure You Read This:

This release is an upgrade to 1.0.2p.  It is reccomended for all users. It can be installed directly over the previous version. See the release notes for more details.

Each Sectional comes in two parts comprised of a North and a South file.  In addition, there are now two related .tfw files that contain Geo-referencing data.  This data will be used in future releases of GlidePlan to allow importing of turnpoint data and location of  specific positions using latitude and longitude.  All four files reside in a folder having the title of the associated Sectional.  Do not remove or separate files from this folder. Do not save any documents you wish to keep into these folders as they will be overwritten when you install an updated Sectional.

GlidePlan now looks for these map folders in a folder called “maps” in the same directory as the GlidePlan application.  If it cannot find a “maps” folder, it will create one the first time you attempt to load a new map. 

Installation/Upgrade Instructions:

  1. Run the Glideplan installer file from this page. This will install the application along with a "maps" folder in the GlidePlan applications folder. It will also create a shortcut to the application on the desktop.
  2. If applicable, delete any other copies of GlidePlan from your computer.
  3. Run any Glideplan Sectional Map installers you want, from this page. Each installer will place a folder in the "maps" folder, inside the GlidePlan application folder, which contains the North and South maps for that sectional, as well as the .tfw geo-reference data files.
  4. The next time you open a Glideplan document that references an expired map, you will be asked to relocate the map file.  Select the new map file, and save your document.
