I want to ask if there is a way you could take a Google maps pin drop and incorporate it by sharing the pin drop to your app without having to manually put the coords in?

The user points out that Google Maps is typically used by law enforcement & rescue helicopters.

Firstly, I told you that I have been flying helicopter, what is connected with take off and landing from/on different unprepared and prepared fields different than airports. For example: stadiums, crossroads, parking areas or mountains and so one. For me in mission planning would be very useful to have hybrid map with satellite image. My question is are you able to integrate Google maps only for planning purposes ? After choosing that points on satellite hybrid maps and saving them pilot will return to open.aip maps for flying.

We might consider adding a link to Google Map in the waypoint description dialog.
