Plan. File. Fly.
Garmin Pilot is the most comprehensive suite of tools for Android designed specifically for general aviation and corporate pilots. Flight planning, DUAT(S) filing, charts, interactive maps, weather briefing resources and navigation capabilities; it’s all included. The app’s intuitive interface mirrors those on the newest Garmin touchscreen avionics so you can go seamlessly from preflight to inflight. Plan, file, fly with Garmin Pilot.
Plan
Garmin Pilot’s powerful capabilities start with pre-flight planning, providing pilots with the most comprehensive aviation weather information to make better-informed flight decisions. Pilots can check NEXRAD radar, visible and infrared cloud imagery, METARs, TAFs, AIRMETs, SIGMETs, PIREPs, NOTAMs, winds and temperature aloft, PIREPs, TFRs and lightning data. With Garmin Pilot, data can be displayed over a VFR sectional or an IFR low or high en-route chart to visualize the weather for your route. Add text-based weather widgets and use the exclusive NavTrack feature to view weather along the planned route.
File
With Garmin Pilot, users can easily enter a flight plan. Pre-loaded forms make it quick to save and reuse data for frequently flown routes. And when the flight plan is ready, Garmin Pilot makes it simple to file, cancel or close the flight plan via DTC DUAT or CSC DUATS.
Fly
Garmin Pilot provides full en-route navigation capability on its moving map, while showing ETE, ETA, cross track error, distance to waypoint and current position.

As an aviation professional I can say this is the best aviation app for android. My biggest complaint with other aviation apps on android was the sporadic chart updates, several times the charts weren't available until a day after they expired! Updates are available well in advance with Garmin Pilot. Developers do read their emails, I never got a response back but they included a small recommendation I made. Will give 5 stars if we get Canada charting and a terrain/obstacles database!

Started off great.. Could not have asked for more.. Loads of info.. But the more updates I loaded for it, the more buggy it got..I never did get it to work in the plane, but I believe that may have had something to do with my phones gps.. The other features still made it worth the $50.. The last few updates made it hard to load,.. THE LAST UPDATE MADE IT COMPLETELY USELESS!!!!!! Tried everything I could think of to get it to open, no dice.. Read to disclaimer, that $50 is gone..

With latest update the need for an active FP or waypoint is still there. This is annoying!!! Please fix!!! If I have to switch to iPad to obtain the latest releases of Garmin Pilot, then I will make the jump to ForeFlight. New features are slow to evolve on the Android platform. Why in the world is an active flight plan required? No centerlines? So many features missing.

Just wish that the updates would come out faster for android. The new 5.0 version became available on iOS on April 4 2013 still waiting on android.. Other than that I love the app I agree it would be nice if an airport doesn't have a safe taxi at least automatically pull up a airport diagram.
