- Added flight plan export for Reality XP GTN and GNS units.
- Added option to save Garmin flight plans with user defined waypoints only to avoid locked waypoints on AIRAC cycle mismatch.
- Added search for X-Plane 3D airport flag in rating dropdown list. Needs scenery database reload.
- Added display for new airport region where available. Needs scenery database reload.
- Now displaying runway names for SIDs and STARs with reference to multiple parallel or all runways in procedure search. Partial solution for #179. Needs scenery database reload.
- Changed route description text field to monospaced font and changed wrapping for word to any for better readability.
- Added options to disable tooltips for selected map features: airports, navaids or airspaces.

- Departure runway is now correctly assigned according to SID runway when loading from formats which do not support departure parking (e.g. FMS or FPL).
- Fixed issues where X-Plane cannot load STAR in FMS 11 flight plans because runway reference is missing.
- Fixed issue where helipad name was not loaded correctly from FSX PLN files in certain cases.
- Fixed Linux build to avoid problems with shared libraries on some platforms.
- Removed unneeded startup script for Linux. Program executable can now be started directly from any directory without setting library path.
- macOS compatibility changed since program does not work on 10.9 and below due to Qt requirements. Now at least version 10.10 is required. Now showing error dialog if macOS is too old. Program now refuses to run on Mavericks or older.

information for multiple or all. Needed for future fixes of #179. Needs scenery database reload - Added new columns "region" and "is_3d" (X-Plane) in airport table. Adapted all compilers to fill it. Needs scenery database reload
- Database minor version bumped up to 8.
- Made flight plan format detection more tolerant for FMS 11 with missing cycle information.
