Anyone having any success with AOPA's new flight planning software?
What is your secret?
This thing was changed with little or no warning and is not even close to being the replacement for what they had!
Alternatively, what are you using successfully?

I too was disappointed .... Had to enter all my information (again!)
just to get very little planning capability. Go ahead and say it ....
the new software sucks.

WHAT?!?! Did I miss some notice that they would be stripping down what they
had, and why?
The one thing it used to do that I liked was seeing the profile view showing
airspaces/moa/etc that the flight altitude would be passing through. That
appears to be gone now.
I HATE Apple products but I totally love Foreflight, so I guess I'll keep
sucking it up.

Has anyone told AOPA? Doesn't do much good to complain to each other.
I'm not an AOPA member, but I if I remember correctly didn't there app come about from the Voyager FreeFlight app? You might want to check it out and see if it is like what The AOPA is use to be.

Yes, I've had several communications with them. After the fact, of course.
They weren't particularly apologetic for making the change, though they
apologized for having so many bugs once they did. I've moved on. Your AOPA
dues this year will go to pay for the constant mailings to get me to renew.
