As someone who's currently only flying piston aircraft - and still learning with those - I didn't think this would really be worth my attention.

And then I read the Hidden Gem section. And that looks pretty damn interesting.

Will there be any help in determining preferred routes between the new destinations (ala MYFLIGHTROUTE.COM) or are we pretty much on our own?

This is great news! Will drones be part of this new airspace to help provide traffic for us smaller plane users? With the idea of rotating fields, could other fields be considered in time like KIDA, KJAC, KBZN, KRDD as examples. These are great Commuter fields in addition to Big Tin and GA and fill the gap in areas between the Core fields in the area as well are addon scenery airports that users will like to use.

One of the best sights around to find recent real world flights. For commercial flights, you can even see gate assignments.
