Got a new iPhone looking for apps?

30 July 2008 No Comment

Here’s the most promising aviation application I have seen to date for the iPhone and Touch (Internet connection required). It’s called Foreflight and allows you to check weather, file a flight plan, and more.

From the ForeFlight web site:

Life is Cooler in Aspen

ForeFlight Mobile 2.0 (codename “Aspen”) now lives and breathes on your iPhone with the rich information, search, and imagery you have come to expect from the leading provider of mobile pilot intelligence software for iPhone and iPod touch. You stay efficiently connected to the preflight information you need when you are away from your desktop or aircraft avionics.

ForeFlight Mobile 2.0, with its integrated collection of public, private and proprietary information, will make you a more productive and better informed pilot. ForeFlight delivers Preflight Intelligence™.

For more information visit the company web site: http://www.foreflight.com/index.php
Price: $69.99

I now have a iPhone within the family so I can demo and review iPhone related applications. I will try to get a trial version of the application to provide a hands on review in the future. I can tell you that any application which allows me to check metars, tafs, notams, and radar on my phone in the cockpit is highly convenient and enhances safety.
