The essential flight simulator companion.
AirTrack integrates with multiple data sources in order to report flight and navigation data wirelessly and in real time. Designed to be used with a Flight Simulator, with the aid of a plugin this application allows you to track your virtual flights in real-time in the palm of your hand, as well as to remotely control your simulated flights.
You no longer need to stay glued to the computer in order to know if you're still flying at 39,000 feet, if you're still heading to the right waypoint, how long you've got left or what the weather is going to be like at your destination airport; you can now relax and do it in the garden or anywhere within WiFi reach really and control your flight with your thumb.
But if this isn't enough, AirTrack can also use your device's built-in GPS, Accelerometer and Gyro to determine your current movements and attitude and the Internet to download real weather to simulate an aircraft's sensors.
Turn your car trip into a flight experience by getting information about your instant position, heading and surrounding waypoints. See yourself in an EFIS style navigation display / primary flight display or plan your multi-leg trip with the built in route planner FMC which gives you real-time information about your waypoints, how far they are and how long it will take you to reach them.
With its built-in database of FIX, VOR, NDB and Airports, AirTrack can also be used as a flight simulator companion allowing you to plan and monitor your trip, target a VOR or even perform a full IFR approach without ever needing to look at the screen.
The AirTrack features include:
- A full Primary Flight Display with speed, altitude, vertical speed, barometric pressure
- Also in the PFD, compass, AI with roll/pitch, auto-pilot status and settings.
- Instant GS, IAS, MACH, TAS and VS when available.
- An MFD with APP, VOR, MAP and PLN mode with centered and expanded views.
- The whole world as a map of geo contours in the MFD.
- NAV / ADF and ILS / Approach guidance in the PFD and MFD.
- An MCP panel to control the Aircraft's Auto-Pilot.
- Wind speed and direction indicators.
- Next waypoint reporting on the MFD.

Awesome flight sim app - but stopped working Prepar3d v4.3
rfeng4fun
awesome flight sim app with functions that are not available in other similar flight simulator apps. Very sad to see no longer works in Prepar3D V4.3 (v4.2 works) also works in Xplane V11. Hope that the developer updates this app to work in Prepar 3D V4.3 as many other users in the forums are also updating to v4.3 to resolve bugs and added features in Prepar3D
Developer Response
Even though Prepar3D has never been an officially supported simulator, it did indeed work with the FSX plugin which was 32 bits. You'll be pleased to know that we've just released a 64 bit version of the FSX plugin so you'll be able to use it again with v4 and above. Please see the downloads section of AirTrack in the web site for the updated gauge file. Fun flights!
Works great with flight simulator 2020

I have 3 Saitek panels (radio, auto pilot and buttons) to work with my flight sim but this works even better. The iPad running AirTrack does not always seem to connect immediately to the flight sim computer running the plug-in so maybe that still needs some work (or maybe I need to do some more testing)
Great Simple EFB

Use this on Xplane, and for real life VFR flights. Simple to use, reads well on my IPhone, way more useful than FltPlan go.
Wants my location services?
teh_spartan
For some reason the app suddenly wanted my phones location for the FMC, the reason was to get my present position. THERE IS NO REASON for a flight sim FMC to need my real world position. Either the developer intends to allow people to use this as a a real world flight aid. or they are using my location data for something else. Either way I’ll be uninstalling the app.
Developer Response
Sorry for the misunderstanding. As stated in the App’s description it asks for your location to display your GPS speed / course and magnetic heading on the PFD and plot your position on the navigation display, give you nearest airports and waypoints, and so on, thus simulating a real plane with real environment measures. You don’t have to allow access to location services for it to work though and you can of course use it with a flight simulator and the corresponding plugin as it is intended. It is more of a fun to have extra add-on which we expect 99% of our users would welcome rather than consider a fault, and it’s totally optional.
- Rename to AirTrack CL (Classic)
- Icon now defaults to blue (can be changed back in settings)
- Bug fixes and performance improvements.
