Thanks for the hard work trying to improve gc. I use gc often so your work to improve it will be highly appreciate by me, and others for sure!

Indeed it is fast! ^

I use the map in my trip report posted in the TR Forum of FT. Being able to get a larger map is a plus!

My other use of flight map is to document my own travel in travel journals. I often print these journals. The problem so far with online maps are that they have low resolution (72dpi), not suitable for printing. Is it possible to have 300 dpi?

One more observation: the airport codes are written on top of a BLACK background, it is possible to have a TRANSPARENT background (no background)? I think it improves readability without background.

Thanks again!
