E6B Flight Computer - Foxtro
METAR & TAF Decoder for Pilots
Free · In‑App Purchases · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
New: the crosswind on every runway, your personal minimums checked against every report, the TAF on a timeline, and a Day mode for the sunny ramp.
The flight computer and the weather decoder in one app, paid for once.
Foxtro is the E6B every student and private pilot does on the ramp and at the kitchen table, without the slide rule and without a subscription. Type in what you know and read what you need, offline, on iPhone and iPad.
LIVE METAR AND TAF, DECODED
• Search any airport in the world by ICAO, IATA or name, even without a connection
• VFR, MVFR, IFR and LIFR at a glance, with wind, visibility, ceiling, temperature, altimeter and density altitude on one card
• Every group of the raw report translated to plain English
• The TAF on a timeline: each period in its own category colour, with a line where now is
• Paste any raw METAR or TAF from anywhere and decode it offline
• Favourite airports, cached for the ramp
RUNWAY WINDS
• The headwind and crosswind on every runway, worked out from the live report against each runway's true heading
• The favoured runway, the gust and the worst case across a variable wind
• The wind in magnetic too, the way the tower reads it
PERSONAL MINIMUMS
Set your own ceiling, visibility, wind and crosswind limits, or the ones in your solo endorsement, and every airport is checked against them: within or outside, and exactly why.
E6B FLIGHT COMPUTER
• The wind triangle: heading, ground speed and wind correction angle from course, TAS and the winds aloft, drawn as you type
• Find the wind from what you actually flew
• True airspeed from calibrated airspeed, pressure altitude and temperature
• Pressure altitude and density altitude
• Time, speed and distance, any one from the other two
• Fuel burn, endurance and range
• Runway headwind and crosswind components
• Estimated cloud base from temperature and dew point
• Conversions: knots, mph and km/h; nautical and statute miles; feet and metres; gallons, litres and pounds; inHg and hPa; °C and °F
WEIGHT AND BALANCE
Set up your aircraft from its own POH once — empty weight and arm, seats, baggage, fuel and the CG envelope — then load it for each flight and see the takeoff and landing points on the envelope.
NIGHT AND DAY
A dark cockpit look for before dawn and after dusk, and a Day mode that stays readable in full sun.
PAY ONCE
The calculators, the decoder and the runway winds are free. One purchase unlocks weight and balance, personal minimums, the TAF timeline and unlimited favourite airports with offline caching. No subscription, no ads, no account.
Weather comes from the US National Weather Service's Aviation Weather Center; runway data from OurAirports. Foxtro is a planning aid, not a certified navigation or briefing source; always confirm with an official briefing before flight.

Ratings & Reviews
- This app hasn’t received enough ratings or reviews to display an overview.
A fresh design that is easier to read in the cockpit, and a Day mode for the sunny ramp. Every airport now shows the crosswind on each runway, the forecast sits on a timeline, and Pro checks each report against your own minimums.
