Nice!
A bloody great tool!
The best tablet flight software
Having this and Jeppesen plates on your iPad is all you need. For flight planning, filing flight plans with suggested ATC routes to weather, ForeFlight is unbeatable! I am so glad I have this software.
Wonderful!
ForeFlight is a wonderful program. It simplifies flying. All of the information relating to charts and maps is immediately available. Going from enroute to arrival to approach is really convenient. Thanks to the team that put this together. Jimecho
