Description

Download the app for a 30-day free trial. ForeFlight is the integrated flight app with all the essentials for VFR & IFR route planning, flight plan filing, and flying in Europe.

ForeFlight is the most widely used application by individual pilots and professional flight crews to access weather and airport information, plan flights with optimized routing, file flight plans via EUROCONTROL, access and manage electronic charts and maps, reference flight manuals and documents, avoid terrain and obstacles with powerful hazard awareness tools, access in-flight traffic (and weather where supported), and aid enroute navigation.

ForeFlight requires a subscription. Visit our website for more information on the available plan levels.

Please note: Location is used to enable a moving map and to record track logs, push notifications are used for important bulletins and flight alerts, and contacts are used to add people to flights.

CHARTS & DATA TO MEET YOUR NEEDS
ForeFlight’s state-of-the-art map engine gives the app its signature speed and fluidity when panning and zooming. Data-driven Aeronautical map uses Jeppesen’s global VFR and IFR navigation data to depict waypoints, airports, airspace, airways, arrival/departure procedures, circuits, holds, no overfly areas, and more to support VFR and IFR flying in Europe.

Europe geo-region includes AIP enroute, procedure, and aerodrome charts and documents provided via EUROCONTROL. Optional add-ons include Jeppesen VFR Procedures, Jeppesen IFR Airway Manual coverages, and the German DFS VFR AIP and Charts. More countries and coverages to come.

EUROCONTROL-INTEGRATED FLIGHT PLANNING, BRIEFING, & FILING
Plan routes using the interactive Maps tab or the form-based Flights tab. Graphical Route Advisor produces EUROCONTROL validated routes within a matter of seconds. Simply tap the desired route to add it to your plan.

File your flight plan from the mobile app or on the web and receive Calculated Take-Off Time (CTOT) notifications (if applicable to your flight). Our global, redundant AFTN connection provides fast, direct, and unlimited access to filing flight plans with no additional cost or account configuration required. ForeFlight currently supports filing within and between any EUROCONTROL member states and Greenland. Generate a graphical preflight briefing and print a professional-grade Navlog for inflight reference.

SUPERIOR WEATHER VISUALIZATION
Overlay a wide selection of interactive weather layers on the Maps view, along with your route line, and quickly see if conditions will affect your flight. View animated radar, global satellite and winds aloft, icing, turbulence, isobars, METAR-based layers, and more. Color-coded METARs/TAFs with decoded text help you quickly interpret conditions.

GEO-REFERENCED APPROACHES & TAXI CHARTS
See the real time display of your GPS location on the chart. For ultimate situational awareness, overlay them onto the Maps view, along with weather and hazards in one integrated view.

GLOBAL HAZARD AWARENESS TECHNOLOGY
Top-down-view Hazard Advisor map layer, Profile View, automatic Hazard Alerts, and 3D Synthetic Vision seamlessly integrate into the map view for a clear picture of terrain and obstacle hazards anywhere in the world. Features Jeppesen’s high-resolution terrain and obstacle data. Pair with an AHRS source for a backup attitude display on Synthetic Vision.

ADDITIONAL FEATURES INCLUDE:
Built-in documents catalog
Airport business and fuel price information
Weight & Balance
Over-the-air data updates using delta-downloads technology
Chart color inversion for better night flying experience

What’s New

Version 16.5

Wake Turbulence Alerts
• Avoid unexpected wake turbulence with the help of visual and auditory alerts as well as a map-based wake depiction.
• While receiving inflight traffic information from a connected ADS-B or FLARM receiver, ForeFlight continuously calculates wake effects from nearby aircraft based on their position, altitude, speed, weight category, and winds aloft information, then compares these with your current flight path.
• If it determines that an intersection is likely, ForeFlight issues a prominent visual and audio alert that includes the wake-producing aircraft’s weight category and call sign, and your current distance from the estimated wake location in nautical miles.
• Additionally, ForeFlight depicts the wake’s estimated position and relative altitude directly on the map as a colored ribbon trailing behind the aircraft. Red portions of the ribbon indicate the position of the wake near your current altitude, while light green portions indicate areas where the wake is either above or below you.
• The point at which you’ll intersect the wake path based on your current flight path is also indicated as a short white strip across the ribbon marked by double chevrons, allowing you to more easily gauge where you’ll cross the wake path relative to the wake itself.
• You can disable Wake Turbulence alerts in Map Settings > Alerts or More > Settings > Alerts.
• Available with ForeFlight Pro subscriptions and above. 

New VFR Add-On Charts
• Customers in the Middle East and South Africa can now add VFR charts from Rogers Data and DFS to any subscription that includes the corresponding regions.
• New Rogers Data 1:1M Saudi Arabia and 1:1M UAE, Bahrain, and Qatar VFR charts are available for customers with the Middle East & South Asia region as part of their ForeFlight subscription.
• New DFS Special Rules Areas 1:250k for Johannesburg and Cape Town VFR charts are available for customers with the Africa region as part of their ForeFlight subscription.
