ForeFlight 9 Introduces Checklists, Glide Advisor

0

The newest version of ForeFlight includes checklist integration to reduce cockpit clutter and improve ease of checklist use. Pilots may elect to use included template checklists derived from aircraft pilot operating handbooks or create their own. Custom checklists can be shared between ForeFlight users over email or AirDrop. Checklist items can be touched to mark them as complete or flagged as skipped to prompt the pilot to return later.

ForeFlight 9 also adds Glide Advisor. When the Glide Advisor is activated, ForeFlight displays areas on the moving map that are within a power-off glide based on altitude, terrain data, winds aloft (if available) and user-provided glide airspeed and ratio. On flat terrain, the glide range perimeter appears as a circle or ellipse shaped by the wind. In hilly terrain, the glide range perimeter is shaped by elevated terrain.
