Would love to have a map to refer to in a web browser or something once you’re in the sim and want to find additional starred airports and POI’s. Imagine an mobile app from MS/Asobo that gave you the World Map access while you were flying!
I wonder if someone has created a custom “overlay” for google maps or whatever those are called.

I came across this topic when trying to reconcile my pilot profile with the list of starred airports
My pilot profile currently says I have landed at 18.00 different “star airports”, and the SIDs and STARs achievement says I am at 72/100 (which is the same as 18 of the 25 required landings).
What’s confused me is that I know I have not landed at 18 of the hand-crafted airports, even including the ones from various Sim Updates, World Updates, or City Updates.
Then I noticed that two of the airports I visited recently are shown on the World Map with stars, but don’t appear on any list of hand-crafted airports I’ve seen (including the Map linked above). Those are SCVH (near Santiago, Chile) and SAWH (Ushuaia, Tierra Del Fuego, Argentina).
It also happens that I had installed a very nice update of SAWH from flightsim.to, so I’m curious if there is something about that package that added the star. However, two other airports that I did update (SFAL and SCBA) do not appear on the World Map with stars.
