Expanded Coverage for Italy, Croatia, and Slovenia

All European subscribers can now download AIPs for Italy, Croatia, and Slovenia, which include IFR high and low enroute charts, IFR and VFR procedure charts, airport diagrams, VFR ICAO charts for Italy, and documents.

  • Italy Avioportolano VFR Flight Guide
  • Italy Avioportolano VFR Chart
  • Italy DFS VFR 500 Chart
  • Croatia DFS VFR 500 Chart
  • Slovenia Rogers Data VFR Trip Kit
  • Slovenia Rogers Data VFR 1:200K Chart
  • Air Million VFR 1:1,000,000 Chart combo, which covers Western, Central, Southern, and some of Eastern Europe, as well as the Azores, Madeira, and Canary Islands.
• ForeFlight already provides advanced flight planning capabilities in all three countries, including fast autorouting and EUROCONTROL route validation, IFR and VFR flight plan filing, and helpful flight plan notifications like EUROCONTROL slot allocation messages, flight suspension and de-suspension notices, and calculated takeoff time (CTOT) messages caused by flight plan delays

‍

Passenger App

• Passenger is a free companion app to ForeFlight Mobile that lets your passengers follow along with the flight and know when they can expect to arrive.
• Enable route sharing in More > Passenger to wirelessly share your current route with any nearby devices running Passenger. If you make changes to the route, ForeFlight will automatically transmit them to Passenger within seconds.
• Available on the App Store now, Passenger is free to download and requires no setup, so let your friends and family know about it before they join you on your next flight!

‍

Route Line in Profile View

• See your planned route in Profile view, complete with climb and descent profiles, TOC and TOD points, and real-time inflight progress.
• ForeFlight uses your aircraft’s performance data to create and display climb and descent profiles for the flight, complete with top-of-climb and top-of-descent points that you can reference inflight.
• After takeoff, see your aircraft’s current position and altitude in relation to your planned route, augmenting the top-down map view with a helpful side-on perspective.
• Profile view is included in ForeFlight Pro plans and above.

‍

Hide Airspace by Altitude

• Declutter ForeFlight’s Aeronautical Map by hiding airspace above a selected altitude, making it easier to focus on airspace closer to you.
• You can find the “Hide Airspace Above” setting in Map Settings > Airspace, and enter altitudes in either feet or flight level (e.g. 18,000 or 180).
• If you climb to within 1,000 feet of hidden airspace along your route, ForeFlight will automatically reveal it, helping you stay aware of airspace when you need to be.

‍

3D View, Anywhere

• Access 3D View for any location on Earth, not just airports. Tap-hold on the map, then tap the 3D button in the top right of the Add to Route window.
• 3D View combines high-resolution terrain and aerial imagery to create a realistic representation of wherever you tap, and allows you to zoom and rotate the map in three dimensions.
• 3D View is included in ForeFlight Performance subscription plans.

‍

Send Block Times to Logbook

• When you send a flight plan that has block times entered in the Flight Log to Logbook, those block times are now carried over and appear in the new Logbook entry.
• These times are similarly preserved when you send a recorded track log to Logbook, including when a draft Logbook entry is created automatically from a new track log.

‍

Filter Flights List by Aircraft

• Use the search bar in the top-left of the Flights view to filter the list of planned and filed flights by aircraft tail number, in addition to filtering by departure and destination airports.

‍

Gogo ATG Support

• Gogo’s ATG and AVANCE line of inflight Wi-Fi systems can now provide GPS position and indicated altitude in ForeFlight.
• Optionally, limit expensive data usage over Gogo’s network by disabling ForeFlight’s internet-connected capabilities like streamed weather data.
• GoGo support is available with Performance Plus and Business Performance subscriptions.
