Glad to hear the responders seem to prefer fore flight. I am not Ifr so plates arent an issue. My problem has been poor readibility in midday sun, and the Ipad (orig) gets so hot in the sun thru our canopies that it turns off. anyone else had that problem? Charlie H

I have an anti-glare screen protector. I departed CCB in SoCal IFR due to marine layer and landed about 7-hours later after one fuel stop in BGD Texas around 4 PM local time. No issuses with visibility or heat. Only 0.1 actual IFR was without clear sky with no clouds.
IMHO, the iPad display is unusable in my airplane (RV-6, slider) without an anti-glare screen protector.
It was 101 on the ramp at BGD and the iPad2 was still working. I intentionally left it on the glare shield while the airplane was refueled and I tied it down. It was overheated an inop. Into the air conditioned office to pay my bill and use the restroom I went. I then turned the iPad2 on to check thunderstorm activity to make sure that a hangar was not needed. The iPad2 worked flawlessly.
The iPad 2 and ForeFlight was all I used for maps, charts, and books all the way to Southwestern PA (Pittsburgh, KVVS) and then to AirVenture 2011 Oshkosh.
