Fantastic!

JSL!
I just took this on a couple of round the world trips. It has now replaced most of my old Palm notes (which I still carry) but have waited years to do.Very (extremely!) good piece of kit. It would be also useful in some of the more outlandish Simulator sessions. Frequencies etc. all right there without having to flick through mountains of paper. 2weeks of constant use and it gets better and better. Notams are a great feature - can read before call in hotel when not rushed and tired. Map features, orientation, everything is well thought out and available.Thank you!!

I paid for and checked out several other apps that are supposed to decode/encode IATA & ICAO airport codes. This is the only one that works globally. You can search by IATA, ICAO, city name or airport name. If you fly all over the world, this really helps deciphering area weather reports.

No General Aviation
This ok, but would better if it had general aviation airports and not just the mega ports. It's no use to me, because I don't fly into those type airports.

Developer Response
Thank you for your feedback from 2013. Unfortunately Apple allows us just now to reply.There are many GA airports in the Database, but it's true that the emphasis is on larger airports. We are constantly working on growing the database, user reports via the in-app reporting system are very helpful.
