ForeFlight Checklist Testimonials


"Private pilot"

I've been waiting for an app like this. For less than the cost of a single type specific laminated checklist I now have interactive checklists for all the aircraft I fly that fits in my palm. I can carry my iPhone around the plane during a preflight and click on each completed item, then mount it on a yolk mount and have it handy for each phase of operation. Fantastic value.

"Great Pilot's Checklist"

This is a great app for any pilot. I find this electronic checklist must easier to follow than the old paper version. Even better, you tweak the order or add/remove items to suit your own routine. The new night mode is a great addition.

"Great App"

Another great app by ForeFlight. It is easy to use, change around & make new checklists. The existing templates are pretty dead on to the manf. same lists. I'd love to see a whole 'EMERGENCY' section for each plane, & template. I love the checked or skipped feature one click away.

"Great App!"

I just purchased this today and will also be getting the mount that they recommended. It is nice to have something in front of you that you don't have to dig for. You can customize the checklist which is important since there are features that are not present on all models. I am looking forward to using this in all 3 of the planes that I fly regularly.

"Outstanding flight planning tool"

As a GA pilot, this app gives me everything I need to know to make the all-important go/no-go decision. It's also tremendously valuable in planning a flight -- even though it doesn't have a flight planner built in (who would do all their flight planning on an iPhone anyway?), it's a one-stop reference for airports and their surroundings (hotels, rental cars, etc) as well as weather. Coupled with a site like AOPA's Internet Flight Planner or fltplan.com, most GA pilots will have everything they need to make detailed flight planning a pleasure.

"If you want an aviation app on your iPhone this is the one to get"

I fly professionally and am very impressed with this application.

"Great App, Great Bargain"

As both an active duty military pilot, and a 'weekend' private pilot, I have come to greatly rely on this App for both types of flying. I am able to check NOTAMS and WX just before I hop into my Apache, and access data much more quickly than digging through my pubs bag in a cramped cockpit. I have recommended this App to several friends who have purchased it, and we all give it a huge 'Thumbs Up!'.

"Excellent Application"

Excellent application, well worth the money. Being able to put in an airport ID, or just click on your recent searches, and having everything relevant downloaded automatically is great. Have successfully filed from the ramp several times. Had one minor issue and tech support was quick to respond with a simple solution. Doesn't get much better than that. Buy the app and support good software.

"Saved my weekend! :)"

I downloaded this app on Friday for my trip. I was able to keep on top of my destination's weather, weather at my home airport and all the airports in between in case we had to divert. It cut my preflight weather briefing in half and I was able to efficiently get the weather forecasts for my Saturday departure and also the satellite image! On a computer this would have taken at least 10 minutes, I would've had to bring my laptop with me and most importantly, I would have been a very rude guest constantly on my computer... the iPhone is much more polite and discreet. As a non-instrument rated pilot, it is VERY important for me to know when the weather is going to clear up and just in case, where the weather is clear in case we have an emergency and need to land somewhere in between. This app truly saved my weekend! :-D

"Direct hit! Perfect product for pilots."

All I can say is WOW! You guys made an incredible product. This is going to make my life so much simpler. From the ability to check weather, to a FULL AFD (not just 3 NW states I have now) to the ability to file flight plans through DUATS. Nice. Completely ignore the comments from non-pilots. This is a deal!

"INCREDIBLE app!"

I *rarely* write reviews, but I felt compelled to on this one. As a GA pilot, and one that watches the weather closely, this app is absolutely indispensable, easily worth twice it's price. As another reviewer mentioned, if you doubt this, you haven't flown left seat. Period.

"Rock solid"

Just wanted to drop you a quick note to tell you two words about ForeFlight Mobile 2.0....Rock Solid.

Congrats to all of you who worked on it!

"ForeFlight simply buries every other possible tool"

When I visit the airport, which is an airport community where the folks all around the airport have homes with hangers attached (grass strip), I simply camp there. This way I get a lot of solo hours in the calm evenings and daybreak morning flights.

This is where ForeFlight simply buries every other possible tool. I must run the weather app every half hour (sometimes waking up at night to check it!) watching for VFR. Since I got it, morning fog and of course wind are my two most checked features (599 lb. plane with low wing loading makes for a lot of interesting rides in the bumps). Perfect. To me, all the info I can get, WELL ORGANIZED, is exactly what ADDS to my flight experience.

So what do I like about ForeFlight? Firstly, it fits into my planning workflow really well: I usually do the initial heavy lifting on my laptop, including filing a flight plan if I'm flying IFR, and then check again on the tarmac just before engine startup. ForeFlight works really well for this last stage, where you can do a last-minute spot check or sanity check without lugging a laptop around or calling flight services. It's also great for informally checking weather, airport information, etc., for an intended flight whenever and wherever you are (a cafe, a hangar, a wireless-free (as opposed to a free wireless) FBO, an office, etc.), and for prepping approaches informally before flying when you don't have the plates handy. And it'll let you file that last-minute flight plan, as long as you have a DUATS account.

"Awesome App!!!!"

This app alone justifies my iPhone purchase. Being able to pull up all the weather, AFD and a bunch of other info really quickly without having to be in front of a computer or calling FSS is just great! Thanks ForeFlight!

"Stunning"

Absolutely amazing. Invaluable for my sort of general aviation flying. I've crisscrossed the country from the Pacific to the Atlantic with it (flying a little four-seater piston single) and I cannot imagine some of the days without ForeFlight along for the planning. Sitting in Champaign, IL my family was able to enjoy lunch instead of sitting at the airport watching the weather radar because I had ForeFlight on the table and I was getting updates every few minutes. We knew right when to head back for our departure window.

"A Must-have"

As a 40+ year pilot--fighters, Part 121 Capt and Mooney owner--I find this App invaluable. Example: after clearing customs at KERI last week with no facilities nearby, save cellphone to FSS, it made getting the macro/micro wx information/Notams and filing IFR for the next leg a breeze. Don't leave home without it. The cost: inconsequential. Also worth mentioning are the excellent symbols for Notams that allow one to quickly separate the wheat from the chaff.

"The best in the industry"

I fly both my own GA aircraft and also fly DC-10's all over the world and must say the information packed into foreflight is unchallenged in the industry. You have everything you need from looking at airport diagrams and charts to looking at real time wx radar for most airports METARS etc all in one spot. It even saves the airports you've looked at before in order of most recent to least recent - I can't say enough about the product and every time I've had a question they've responded via email within the day if not the hour. I wholeheartedly endorse this product.

"Perfect for any pilot"

Simply the best. Beats the multiple 10 or 15 dollar a month subscriptions that provide the same data. This tool is perfect for any class/rated pilot. Thanks to Jason and his co-workers for this one. Great job, guys!!

"Unbelievable Product!"

I just passed my IFR checkride today and my examiner was blown away at what this application could do. We must have spent 15 mins going through everything and I am sure it helped give an impression of being very well prepared. Very impressive to have all this data that you need to make a go/no go decision without having to carry a laptop. The filing works great and is a breeze to use. I will use this program every time I fly.

"Excellent Weather and Flight Planning Tool"

This application provides a wealth of information for pilots, wannabe pilots, aviation buffs and weather buffs. It consolidates and presents a variety of information into a easy to use and extremely useful application.

The customer service of these folks is awesome too. I had some questions prior to buying the product and I emailed them and received a personal response from one of the actual developers within an hour. If you have any questions about the app I urge you to drop them an email before you purchase it. They are great! Also check out their website and read all the information and watch the demo videos that they have there.

No, it is not free, no it is not cheap. YES, it is high quality, well designed, well supported - worth every penny.

This private pilot highly recommends it. Happy and safe flying to you from Albuquerque, New Mexico, USA!!!

"Wow"

I got pointed to ForeFlight Mobile by a poster at the Pilots of America web forum. I've been wanting flight information software for my iPhone, and one look at FFM was all it took. Wow. That's what software for the iPhone should be: straightforward, clear, and intuitive.

I have had my iPhone since last fall and have a dozen or so apps running on the phone. Your application though is probably the best example of a truly value add application that runs well both in a mobile and desktop environment. I love the preflight planning tools in the ForeFlight Desktop Edition app and the iPhone version is absolutely fantastic for getting airport and weather data on the go. Honestly, I really do not have an application (save for maybe email) that is more worthwhile than Foreflight. I am really excited about getting to use the new Foreflight File! feature as well.

Keep up the great dev work and thanks for putting out such a great application on such a new platform.

ForeFlight Desktop Testimonials

I just downloaded the trial of ForeFlight Desktop Edition and that is a fantastic piece of work. I guess I'm more of a visual person and I love the use of the graphics to represent the information.

Dan D.

I just came across your website for ForeFlight Desktop Edition and I'm extremely impressed with what you've come up with. The user interface is easy to use and intuitive.

Blake C.

For new students who aren't used to seeing weather as pilots do ForeFlight Desktop Edition is a great preflight and teaching tool, and for those who understand how to read weather charts it gives a quick go/no-go indication.

Ralph F.

I use ForeFlight Desktop Edition often because nothing else I have provides such a nice, quick and complete overview of my current and forecast weather condition.
