Navigating Identical VOR and Airport Identifiers in iFlightPlanner

Tuesday, July 23, 2024 @ 8:00 AM

Planning flights can be a meticulous task, especially when dealing with specific navigation aids like VORs that share identifiers with airports. iFlightPlanner offers a robust solution for this scenario, making flight planning both flexible and accurate.

When the IATA Identifiers Match

When planning a flight, iFlightPlanner supports routing from and to VORs. However, a common issue arises when a VOR and an airport share the same three-character IATA identifier. In such cases, the system defaults to assuming the identifier refers to the airport, not the VOR. For example, the identifier "OSH" could refer to both an airport and a VOR. By default, iFlightPlanner will interpret "OSH" as the airport and change it to "KOSH," which can be frustrating if you intend to depart from or navigate to the VOR.

How to Distinguish VORs

The solution is straightforward: add "/V" to the VOR identifier. So, if you wish to start your flight from the "OSH" VOR, you should enter it as "OSH/V" in the Planner console. This simple addition ensures that the system correctly interprets your input as a VOR rather than an airport, as shown here:

This feature is particularly beneficial for pilots who often depart VFR and pick up an IFR (Instrument Flight Rules) clearance en route. It provides more flexibility and reduces the load on the IFR system. iFlightPlanner’s intuitive interface and this specific feature make it an excellent tool for precise and efficient flight planning.

Understanding IFR Flight Plans: Why Changes Can't Be Made Within 46 Minutes

Thursday, July 18, 2024 @ 8:00 AM

When operating under Instrument Flight Rules (IFR), pilots must file a flight plan that cannot be amended or canceled within 46 minutes of departure. This rule ensures safety and efficiency within Air Traffic Control (ATC).

Why the 46-Minute Rule?

Once a flight plan is filed, ATC coordinates with various sectors and allocates resources. Sudden changes can disrupt these operations, affecting safety and efficiency.

What Constitutes a Change?

In addition to altitude or flight level, destination, and route changes, altering the speed of an aircraft constitutes a change. If the average true airspeed at cruising altitude varies by plus or minus 5 percent or 10 knots, ATC must be advised.

How to Manage Changes?

  1. Plan Ahead: Ensure your flight plan is accurate and finalized before the 46-minute cutoff.
  2. Communicate Early: If changes are needed, notify ATC promptly. Changes should be made more than 46 minutes before departure using the Amend Flight Plan feature offered by iFlightPlanner. If unavailable, contact an ATC facility or FSS.
  3. Update Departure Times: Notify ATC if your departure is delayed by more than 2 hours to keep the flight plan active. Due to traffic saturation, ATC may not accept revisions via radio, so contact a flight plan service provider or FSS.

By understanding and adhering to this rule, pilots can contribute to a safer, more efficient air traffic system.

4 Tools to Help Burn Less Fuel and Fly Faster

Wednesday, April 24, 2024 @ 8:00 AM

Not planning with an iFlightPlanner Premium membership is likely costing you - using these four simple planning tools will help save you fuel, time, and money every time you fly!

Detailed Aircraft Performance Profiles

iFlightPlanner offers the most detailed aircraft performance profiles of any flight planning solution.  Not only can you input performance data by altitude, but as an iFlightPlanner Premium, you're able to create and plan using multiple performance profiles that will maximize your aircraft's range or cruise speed.  The flight planner is so robust that it interpolates aircraft performance based on all available data, and gets more precise as you add details to the profile for each altitude. 

Do you have performance profiles that you've perfected for your aircraft?  Let us know, the iFlightPlanner Crew will be happy to help add it to your account!



Aircraft Fuel Range Mapping

Instantly see if you can reach your destination non-stop, or know when you'll begin burning your predetermined reserve fuel with our fuel range identifiers.  The orange marker shows where you'll tap into your reserve, while the red marker indicates the maximum range of your aircraft given your route, aircraft performance, and forecasted winds.  Each fuel setting is available when editing an aircraft from your My Aircraft list, allowing the markers to appear on the map automatically for iFlightPlanner Premium.



Graphical Fuel Price Map Layers

 

Turn on the fuel price layers in any of our interactive maps, including iFlightPlanner for iPad, to get a look at the most recently reported fuel prices across the country.  Each fuel price links to our comprehensive Airport/Facility Directory for each airport, complete with FBO details, runway information, and printable airport diagrams and instrument approach procedures.

 

 

 

Altitude Efficiency Comparison Tool

Leveraging your detailed aircraft performance profiles, iFlightPlanner can compare every altitude (up to your aircraft's maximum) to identify the quickest, and most fuel-efficient altitudes for your flight.  Simply click the Compare Altitudes button in the online Flight Planning Interface or in iFlightPlanner for iPad to discover the fuel savings waiting for you enroute!

 

Using another EFB but want to switch to iFlightPlanner and take advantage of these great features?  Our Competitive Upgrade Program allows you to trade-in your existing subscription and have the time remaining on it added to your new iFlightPlanner Premium.

If you have any questions, please send us a message.  We are always happy to help and want you to get the most out of your iFlightPlanner experience!

NBAA Introduces New International Flight Plan Format Guide

Wednesday, April 10, 2024 @ 8:00 AM

NBAA unveiled a tool at the 2024 NBAA International Operators Conference in Orlando, FL, to aid compliance with international flight planning requirements.

The "International Flight Plan Format Guide," developed by NBAA’s International Operators Committee, helps operators manage varied flight plan requirements from the FAA, ICAO, and other regulators. This guide, supported by major flight planning vendors, provides a standardized format to align on flight plan language and structure. Though optional, using this format simplifies the LOA application process and enhances international compliance.

NBAA collaborates with the FAA to gather feedback and improve the process continuously, addressing issues like incorrect equipment codes. This initiative aims to streamline operations and ensure industry-wide consistency.
