I’m going to have to switch to a non-Google pilot map. Google started charging for maps last year. I signed up for 1 year of free service. It expired today. Looking at the billing, our usage would total $136 annually. That’s not a good price for how we use the map data to simply show where our pilots are flying, so I’m going to have to switch to something else.
I'll disable the map in January and then code up something new later in 2020.

Re: Pilot map errors
I think it's the best friend Mich. I consider the price very high for the utility it provides...

Re: Pilot map errors
Thank you Mike for everything you do. We all do really appreciate it. I agree, that's a steep price to pay just to have a map that shows where we are flying.
