Performance Flight Planning for Personal Aviation

Smarter, Next-Generation Flight Planning

ForeFlight Performance is a powerful suite of advanced flight planning features integrated with ForeFlight’s core mobile and web planning solution. Performance includes a library of detailed aircraft performance profiles that produce the most accurate flight time and fuel burn calculations, a sophisticated flight planning engine that generates optimized routes for any two airports in the world, and a user-friendly interface that simplifies your planning workflow – and it all syncs across your devices so you can plan faster, whenever and wherever it is most convenient.

Built-In Performance Models

Comprehensive Routing

Easy Scenario Planning

Automatic Safety Checks

ForeFlight Labs: Taxi Routes

Chart a course to or from the runway with an interactive and contextually-aware taxi route bubble editor. The dynamic Taxi Route keyboard and bubble editor allow you to quickly add, remove, and rearrange route elements as your clearance is read out to you, with dedicated Clear, Undo, and Redo buttons for flexible editing. Your finished taxi route is displayed directly on the moving map as well as on the airport’s diagram in Plates. Enable Taxi Routes in the ForeFlight Labs section of More > Account.

Weather in Profile View

Enhance your route planning with a cross-sectional view of internet icing and turbulence forecasts displayed in Profile View. Profile View uses the same color scales as the overhead map to depict varying intensities for each layer at multiple altitudes in relation to your route line. ForeFlight uses your planned departure and enroute times to display weather over multiple forecast periods during which your flight will be active, providing a more accurate picture of changing conditions throughout your flight.

Better, Faster, More Accurate Answers

ForeFlight’s planning engine analyzes current and forecasted wind and temperature data, aircraft performance capabilities, and recent ATC history to offer a comprehensive list of route options – even for airports without previously flown routes. Simply select your desired cruise profile and ForeFlight handles the complex calculations, delivering the answers you need to make informed decisions.

File-Friendly Optimized Autorouting

The easy-to-use Graphical Route Advisor recommends the best route and altitude for your aircraft, and provides you with the highest probability for cleared as filed (which is also helpful for PDC). In addition, EUROCONTROL validated routes are created in a matter of seconds.

Dynamic Route Performance Calculations

The ever-changing wind, temperature, and weight conditions the aircraft experiences throughout a trip are reflected in the highly accurate flight time and fuel burn calculations, including the improved performance over the course of a flight as the aircraft lightens through fuel burn.

Easy Scenario Planning

Need to explore the impact of taking more or less fuel? More passengers than you expected arrive at the airport? Quickly evaluate what-if scenarios with just a few taps and ForeFlight automatically recalculates weight, altitude, and fuel requirements – all at jet speed.

High-Fidelity Fuel & Load Planning

Easily add payload information and modify reserve fuel amounts in the neatly organized form-based Flights view. The trip summary pinned to the top of the view continuously updates as you make adjustments.

Structural Limit Checks

Automatic structural weight limit checks, with visual alert feedback, eliminate an overweight takeoff or landing scenario.

Top-of-Climb Cruise Check

Detects potential hot/high/heavy conditions and recommends a lower initial cruise altitude at which the desired cruise speed can be achieved.

Multiple Fuel Policies

Flexible fuel planning offers a variety of fuel strategies. Need to land with a specific quantity of fuel? Use Landing Fuel policy to quickly calculate block fuel for that outcome.

 Integrated JetFuelX Fuel Prices

JetFuelX simplifies managing your multiple fuel card memberships so you can quickly search, compare, and pinpoint the best fuel price for your trip. With the ForeFlight Performance Plus plan, your contract fuel prices can be conveniently displayed in ForeFlight Mobile and ForeFlight on the web.

UNLIMITED PROFILES

Great for flight departments with more than one airplane, or for aircraft on leaseback that have different fuel discount levels. Associate all your pricing with one aircraft, or individually.

QUICKLY SEARCH & COMPARE

Search prices and compare in real-time with nearby airports. See results in a color-coded list or interactive map view. We timed it – find the lowest price and request a fuel release in 15 seconds.

ALWAYS CURRENT

As your fuel vendors publish new prices, JetFuelX automatically syncs that information so your profiles are always up to date.

Never Miss a Meeting with Trip Assistant

Trip Assistant is a simple-to-use planning tool for anyone involved in mission planning – assistants, flight support staff, passengers, and pilots alike. Trip Assistant quickly computes total door-to-door trip time, factoring in drive time, flight times using historical and forecast winds, and fuel stops to create a detailed itinerary showing exactly when you need to leave your home or office in order to arrive on time at your final destination.
