I have it, and am using it to design my panel. From a software
designer's point of view, the program has many bugs and a very poorly
designed user interface. Having said that, none of the bugs I've found
to date are show-stoppers (that is, the program does not crash and will
not lose any of your work). It's still worth getting, in my opinion. The
Europa panel has fewer opportunities to get creative than many other
planes, due to its small size. This can be viewed as a GOOD THING -
extra goodies cost more, and more importantly, weigh more.

Hi Everyone,
I've been trying to decide on the instruments and avionics to put on my
panel.
Does anyone have any experience with the Panel Planner Pro software? It
would
be good to be able to click and drag any assortment of items, print them
out
and really make sure before anything is cut. Cut outs are ok but this
would
allow you to look at many different options at one time after they were
printed out. The package is suppose to have all the specs for each piece
of
gear including weight and power consumption, behind panel space (in the
Pro
Version) and approximate price. If it comes in floppy disk format, does
anyone
have a copy they would be willing to "loan" ?
Thanks,
Troy
