ForeFlight

Watch Phil Inman present our Decision Making & Inflight Safety webinar with Q&A. This webinar covers how to use ForeFlight’s safety features that can help you prepare for situations while flying or on the ground. Learn about preflight and inflight tools such as Takeoff and Landing Performance, Glide Advisor, inflight alerts, ADS-B weather and traffic, and more. Special guest Richard McSpadden, Executive Director of AOPA Air Safety Institute joins us to provide insight on aviation trends and increasing safety.

Devices that provide wireless inflight data like GPS and weather to your iPad can sometimes disconnect, whether due to a dead battery, connection issues, or human error. Whatever the reason for the loss of signal, the Device Disconnect Alert allows you to quickly take steps to restore the connection or switch to an alternative data source.

OLD VIDEO: This video was made before the "More" tab was redesigned from a single page to a pull-out menu, but all of the capabilities you access from "More" are the same as they were before. Visit the ForeFlight Mobile Pilot's Guide.

Keep an eye on how far you are from nearby airports, obstacles, and landmarks using distance rings. You can set the rings to automatically grow and shrink as you change zoom level, or set them to display flight times rather than distances. This simple tool is a must-have for maximizing inflight situational awareness.

ForeFlight SETOPS is an advanced flight planning capability that helps European commercial operators of single engine turbine aircraft comply with EASA regulations while increasing the safety and efficiency of their entire operation. SETOPS is available as a per-tail add-on to ForeFlight Business Performance subscription plans. 

ForeFlight’s Takeoff & Landing Performance feature allows you to specify a safety distance factor to produce more conservative runway performance calculations in response to runway conditions or other factors.

Takeoff & Landing Performance is included in ForeFlight Performance plans and supports many piston and single-engine turboprop aircraft types.

Watch CFI and host of Aviation101 Josh Flowers along with CFI and ForeFlight Support Team member Chris Mauser describe how ForeFlight can help you optimize your pilot habits. Josh and Chris walk through their flight workflow - from preflight planning all the way to post-flight debriefing - and show how ForeFlight’s integrated capabilities can help bolster and even become the basis for safety-enhancing habits and procedures.
