AEA and iFlightPlanner Collaborate to Help Pilots Locate Avionics Businesses

Wednesday, September 4, 2024 @ 8:00 AM

Private pilots and corporate operators now have the added benefit of easily locating Aircraft Electronics Association (AEA)  member companies through iFlightPlanner.

This new service will help thousands of pilots find an avionics shop in the United States through iFlightPlanner’s web-based platforms, including iFlightPlanner for AOPA, and mobile apps for iOS. The collaboration is expected to expand to additional countries in the future.

iFlightPlanner is the simple, cost-effective flight planning solution with ADS-B connectivity for private pilots and corporate operators. Through its comprehensive airport, FBO, and business directory, AEA member companies will receive a Basic Listing that includes:

  • Business name
  • Telephone numbers
  • Radio frequency
  • Current fuel prices (if applicable)

Opportunities for member companies to upgrade their listings to maximize the exposure for their services and amenities are also available.

"This new service from iFlightPlanner now offers AEA members with an added benefit," said Mike Adamson, president and chief executive officer of the Aircraft Electronics Association. "Our members in the U.S. will now be included as part of iFlightPlanner’s basic business listings on its digital platforms. Those companies who have earned our Avionics Training Excellence Award will also be identified. Pilots now have an added tool to quickly find our government-certified repair stations at airports throughout the country."

iFlightPlanner teamed with the Aircraft Owners and Pilots Association in 2020 to make a version of its interactive, web-based flight planning tool available free of charge to hundreds of thousands of AOPA member pilots. With AEA member shops now listed in the directory, these aircraft owners and pilots are only one call away from aviation’s technology experts.

"Collaborating with AEA to provide their members increased visibility through all of our digital platforms is a natural extension of iFlightPlanner," said Andy Matthews, co-founder and director of business development at iFlightPlanner. "By integrating AEA's member companies into our airport business directory, we’re not only enhancing the exposure of these avionics businesses but also ensuring that pilots can easily connect with the specialized services they need to maintain or upgrade their aircraft."

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!

Updated FAA Guidance for Using EFBs

Wednesday, March 6, 2024 @ 8:00 AM

The FAA has released AC 91-78A, updating guidance for aircraft owners, operators, and pilots under Title 14 CFR part 91 on using Electronic Flight Bags (EFBs). This update simplifies replacing traditional paper information with digital solutions, including hosted database and software applications, while ensuring regulatory compliance.

EFBs like iFlightPlanner have been be a game-changer, allowing pilots to store and retrieve essential flight information electronically, such flight plans, regulatory compliant weather briefs, weight and balance calculations, aeronautical charts, and more.  The new guidance clears the way for fully digitized cockpits, provided the digital information meets specific criteria: it must not replace required aircraft systems, should be equivalent to the paper versions, must be current and accurate, and should not interfere with flight operations.

Additionally, the AC recommends assessments for human-machine interface and Crew Resource Management (CRM), and highlights the importance of training and security procedures to ensure safe and effective use of EFBs.

2023 AirVenture, Oshkosh Arrival & Departure Signs

Tuesday, June 6, 2023 @ 1:00 PM

The 2023 AirVenture Notice specifies sign codes used to inform ground personnel of your desired parking area at Wittman Regional Airport (KOSH).  You'll need to display one of these signs for your arrival and another for departure based on your aircraft type and parking or camping preference.

New for 2023 is the option for GAC and GAP arrivals to request either the North 40 or South 40 - but note these requests are NOT guaranteed.

Arrival Signs

Departure Signs

Please know this Notice does not supersede restrictions contained in other FDC NOTAMs, however it is required reading and should be part of every pilot's preflight preparation.

This year's arrival and departure signs are again produced in partnership with iFlightPlanner for AOPA, the powerful web interface for AOPA members to plan flights using hi-res charts and weather imagery, retrieve weather briefs, file flight plans, and much more!

Remember to print your arrival and departure signs before your trip and fly safe!
