First thing to ask is: How many of those things can your Aera 660 do? Not the majority of them, I suspect.

Yes, you can do this. It's an operating system issue, not a SkyDemon issue, but for example on my PC and my Android tablet I can choose a page range to print, which includes being able to print only 1 specific page. (The Android capability possibly comes from a third party print manager, which I need to jave to print at all - I'm not sure; but I
can do it if I want.)
RisePilot wrote:2) NO ability to cut/paste from Planning Screen & Pilot Log (ie info of aerodromes, NOTAMS, etc)
This is correct, I think. But I'm not sure how it is a "deficiency" as opposed to "something a few people might desire sometimes". The only time I've wanted to do it, though, is to copy & paste a NOTAM onto these forums - not its main purpose, I think. The rest of the time the info is where I want it - within SkyDemon/on my tablet for reference.

Is this a deficiency? There is a vertical margin provided that (for me anyway) is quite suitable for GA and has a datum around my current altitude.That aids readability and reduces clutter. If I want to see what's above, I press and hold on the map for the "What's here?" popup which shows airspace at that point up to FLnosebleed.
You can also change the virtual radar horizontal scale by pinching or using the zoom buttons on the screen

I don't know what this is.
RisePilot wrote:5) NO ability to lock route, so you don't accidentally change it
Chaging it accidentally when you are flying takes two independent actions. That's locked, isn't it? You wouldn't want it locked and always immovable because you might well want to adjust it in flight due to weather or a revised clearance etc.
RisePilot wrote:6) NO ability to directly enter GPS coordinates in "decimal degrees" format
Again, why is this a deficiency? The format is Nddmmss.ss Wdddmmss.ss, and it's easy enough to determine a position in that format isn't it? Why, generally, is Ndd.dddd... a more desirable format and deficient if unavailable?
