Great App and Value
This app does everything you need. Recommend over any paid subscription.
United StatesInstructor Pilot
I have been using this app from many years and I highly recommend it to my students for their planning not only IFR/VFR but for tactical mission planning as well here at USAACE. The number 1 complain continues to be having to update the password, which with todays face recognition and fingers print access to keychain on IPads is truly not an issue at all. Airdrop/Sharing cycles with other users is fantastic. The DOD FLIP access and downloads within cycles has no match. The Aero App Data Server is a must. It allows the user ti take their experience to the next level; specially by using the Convert TIIF files into MBTTiles tool. Two recommendations: 1 Please bring satellite imagery back u ser the map selection tab. 2 Allow users to AirDrop/Share user flies such as MBTiles. The number two recommendation is particularly important when users create routes on Falcon View that can later one be converted into MBTiles for their tablets as a backup to a MFD failure.
United StatesGreat in theory, keep improving
I really like the app, easy for planning and the TO Mins page is better than any app out there. CONS: drains battery and takes up a lot of memory. User interface can be difficult to learn. PROS: Only world-wide EFB that I know of. GREAT for planning! Love the dog houses and drag to drop function. It would be nice to load approaches similar to other apps. Also, the DS-B info is nicer on other Hilton Software Apps (Wing X Pro) it would be nice to see more cross-over….
United StatesGreat start
As a new aviator this is a great start for free! Need to add the ability to Electronically file IFR flight plans and to add approaches to your flight plan route, additionally need to add wind correction and along with the total distance on the route add an estimated time of flight the route would take.
United StatesWhy is it so bad?
Why is it that everything related to computer’s in the federal government so lackluster? It’s even worse that we’re forced to use it.
United StatesWas a good app
This was a good app until something changed, and I have to reset my password every time I need to update data.
United StatesDoes not work
Will not load any moving maps or products no matter how much I download. Cannot view any maps. Completely useless user interface. Complete waste of time.

Pilots can overlay Air Defense Identification Zone (ADIZ) sectors on the Moving Map. Pilots can access detailed information on the specific areas of airspace such as its name, identifier, minimum altitude, maximum altitude, controlling agency, and frequencies.GeoPackage Support
