Any way to get a navigation chart into VR?

I was wondering if it would be possible to get a navigation chart, such as VFR Sectional or Approach plates, into VR? Xplane has an AviTab plugin that will do that, and I would like to see a similar feature here.

If this is about asking..having Navigraph embedded would be wonderful :)

We're working on a nice little interface to easily import images into the cockpit :)

That sounds promising, I use P3d with the FI add-on and this lets me import my navigation screen (Plan-G) and also enables the pop-up windows to show in VR. Something similar would be good!

That is faboulous.
I am looking for having a small checklist for engine failure simulation, so something where you could bring PDF/Any other external screen, will be greatly appreciated.

We've just released a new beta branch update, 0.6.1.0. It adds a very nice "Aircraft -> Charts" menu to let you do this :)

More powerfully, but also pretty buggy/experimental, and a bit fps-heavy, you'll find "Sim -> Desktop Capture"

Thanks,
