When I wrote flight planner, I meant one more along the lines of PFPX, SimBrief, LNM. Not something basic. Can Navigraph Charts be pinned to always stay on top of other windows?

Not something basic. Can Navigraph Charts be pinned to always stay on top of other windows? ok sorry I thought you meant for viewing charts - it does not have an external PDF viewer. I wouldn't call the planner basic, you can add SIDs and STARs and approaches. I use it on a second monitor but the only way to pin it on top is with a script program like autokey, etc. RIG#1 - 7700K 5.0g ROG X270F 3600 15-15-15 - EVGA RTX 3090 1000W PSU 1- 850G EVO SSD, 2-256G OCZ SSD, 1TB,HAF942-H100 Water W1064Pro 40" 4K Monitor 3840x2160

Here's a list of some of the apps that I run alongside with MSFS: Pilot2ATC SimToolKitPro Little Navmap Web Browser Discord The Skypark Aivlasoft EFB That's 7 apps! Now if more addons come out such as ActiveSky for MSFS, that will be even more apps I have to launch. What I have been dreaming all along is for a single app that can include most of these functions. I would love to have an EFB that can be used as a full functioning Flight Planner (PFPX, SimBrief, LNM), PDF Viewer to view my charts and documents, Built-in web browser so that I can have Discord, YouTube, AVSIM forum and whatever else I feel like surfing during my flight. I would love to have the clean and modern UI of The Skypark for this. I really hope some talented devs can ever come up with such an elegant solution. I would pay to have something like this. The app would need to have a slick UI and have the option to pin the window on top. Like The Skypark does. I wish the developers at //42 can add more "apps" to their home screen to cover some of those missing features, so that we don't have to have 1 app for every feature that we need. An all-in-one but elegant and streamlined solution would make the flying experience that much better. The Ultimate EFB would need to include the following features: Built in web browser PDF Viewer Navigraph Charts Flight Planner Moving Map Perhaps the EFB can be modular, meaning that devs or other 3rd party devs can create or add to the existing feature set by creating "apps" that live inside the EFB. Kind of like an iPhone, where you have many different apps that do different things. A dev can release features to the EFB by creating an app that lives on the EFB. It’s called ForeFlight.
December 25, 20205 yr FlyByWire is working on an EFB for the A320NX. I don't know what it will include, but if it is anything like the Zibo EFB it should be grant. Most of what is said on the Internet may be the same thing they shovel on the regular basis at the local barn.
