For those of us who tend to choose the “continue on the web” option when calling up our favorite online tools and information sources through websites, Garmin has made flight planning a bit easier.

Garmin’s popular SmartCharts flight planning and charting tool, known for decluttering chart data and helping pilots focus on the most relevant information, is now available on Garmin Pilot Web, the company’s flight planning website. Introduced a year ago for the Garmin Pilot app, SmartCharts had, until now, largely left out web users.
