FAQ:
Q: Why won’t you make this app free?
A: It costs me (the developer) money to run the server for this App. That’s where it gets the data about the Airports in the US. Plus I will be constantly updating this app and all updates are FREE for the life of the app.
Q: Why isn't my local airport available?
A: Please realize that not all airports have METAR or TAF services. You can use the nearest airport feature to find airports with weather information.
Q: Do the sectional charts move like Google Maps?
A: Version 1.6 (available now) will allow you to pan and zoom sectional charts. Although you still can't use swiping and pinching...that will be available later (i'm still working on it).
Q: Where is [insert feature here]?
A: It's coming. I have a long list of feature requests, and I promise to get each one done. In the meantime, send me emails with your requests and I will add them to the list if its doable.
If you have any other questions or problems please e-mail the developer at felix@bepilot.com

Customer Reviews
Great Aviation App
I have used this app for 3 months and it is a very helpful tool in preflight as well as up to date data. I can request WX and receive it quicker than in the cockpit using AFIS. I can't think of anything I would change or improve upon. This is one of my most used apps.
4/5
Please add winds aloft. This app is great now but with winds aloft would make it perfect.
Best Airport Info App I've seen
Has everything to help do prelim flight planning. It's amazing! It has the VFR & IFR Charts available along with all approach FLIP charts, not to mention all the real time METAR, TAF, PIREP, AvChart and even NOTAM info. The calculation tools are pretty handy as well.
Of course, you need the actual FAA approved docs in the plane, but it's a pretty neat preflight tool all around.
A nice addition (hint, hint) would be to add a point to point distance calculator to provide the distance between airports, NAVAIDs, or GPS points.
All around though, a pretty amazing and useful App!
