I am looking to buy p3d after a long break from FSX. So in summary, they're all good, but I seem to favor FS Commander with PFPX for "my" needs. FS Commander also now supports loading of FSGRW weather data which is nice to have if you want to get a more accurate depiction of your weather (assuming of course one is using FSGRW weather engine). If I'm doing a "standard" route using a PFPX supported commercial aircraft, then I'll use PFPX for planning. not a big deal, but other solutions like EFB have their own network module so no need for WideFS/FSUIPC. The only downside to FS Commander is that in a network setup it requires WideFS (aka part of FSUIPC). In many ways FS Commander is a lot like a GTN750 and/or other GPS units that can be used in an aircraft. I run FS Command, EFB remotely (networked). FS Commander keeps it more "open" and with FS Commander I can just fly and track (including AI) or can have it assume the controls and be the autopilot. PFPX is very in depth, but does seem to focus on commercial aircraft.ĮFB is good also, but I don't like how it forces you into "stages" of flight. FS Commander provides everything I need with the exception of fuel planning.

Out of the 3 I use FS Commander 9.6 the most. I've got/use FS Commander (now 9.6 with recent update), EFB, PFPX.
