Making the Most of Flight Simulators
Watch Martin Kemp, ForeFlight's Director of Product, and Chris Palmer, CFI and founder of Angle of Attack (@AngleOfAttack), demonstrate how to use ForeFlight with flight simulators to assist with your flight training, maintain proficiency, and increase your ForeFlight know-how safely.
This webinar includes discussion about several popular flight simulators, how to connect them to ForeFlight, amd how ForeFlight can enhance your experience and situational awareness while using a simulator.
Obstacles in 3D View
Spot potential hazards along your route and establish a mental picture of final approach with the help of Obstacles in ForeFlight’s 3D View suite, included in ForeFlight Performance subscription plans.
Organized Track Systems
Organized Track depictions in ForeFlight provide a valuable reference for pilots who utilize these track systems. Organized Tracks are available on mobile and the web with ForeFlight’s Performance Plus and Business Performance subscription plans.
ForeFlight displays three different track systems: The North Atlantic Organized Track System, the Pacific Organized Track System, and the Australian Organized Track Structure. Individual tracks are color-coded based on direction: East-bound tracks are purple and West-bound tracks are green. Zoom in to the start of each track to see labels for the track’s name and direction. Each waypoint in the track is also labeled.
