Ryan McBride, ForeFlight's lead product designer, walks you through the basic of ForeFlight, from choosing and buying an iPad, to navigating the different "views" in the app, to planning simple flight plans. If you're just getting started with ForeFlight, this course is for you.
If you already know the basics of ForeFlight and want to explore some of the more advanced features, check out our Power Users course here: • ForeFlight Power Users...

I haven’t flown since 2008. This level of technology is amazing!

Same here. I just went flying with a friend and saw this in action and thought...I need to redo my Instrument rating!

I can't believe how easy and awesome this is! I started using ForeFlight on day one of my flight training

I used physical maps and charts throughout my entire training... ForeFlight makes me feel like a caveman who just discovered fire.

Lol I just got Foreflight yesterday and I feel the same way! I earned my private pilot license this past March and I’ve been using paper charts since. I’ve been fooling around with it for almost an entire day! It’s definitely different

@d.n.3652 3 жыл бұрын

That’s the way to do it. Use paper charts to train and then spoil yourself once you get your certificate

Question for anyone that could answer me, the ruler on foreflight gives Magnetic Course? Is that correct? And if it is, to get my True course I would add/subtract the opposite to the variation lines to get true heading, and then add/subtract wind correction so I could get true course is that right? Thank you!!

What an amazing app. I'm just a professional drone pilot and this is invaluable to me to get nearby airport info, CTAF, ATIS, METARs and TAFs and sectionals to quickly see airspace classes etc.

@foreflight if I have a wifi only iPad, but connect it to my phone’s mobile hotspot, will I be able to make full use of the log tracking feature or other GPS features?

@Rafael-lz1sv 4 жыл бұрын

Hello Guys, thanks for your nice product. I am a CIS pilot, work as a CFI in Kazakhstan, and unfortunately there are almost nothing, only basic information. Could you please develop and add more information into forflight for Kazakhstan airspace? Have used your app in Florida, brilliant, but not using in my country. Many pilots would have your app in Kazakhstan 🇰🇿... thank you and do not stop doing your business.

hi may i know for the ipad as you suggest in getting Wifi Cellular and you can have the GPS in the air, may i know its up to how many feet ? many thanks .

@cadekoberg4914 4 жыл бұрын

For the cellular iPad do you also need a plan with it?

@sparrowtail561 3 жыл бұрын

For GPS only, you don't. You don't get a signal at flight altitudes anyway, if you really need internet access, you can always create a Wi-Fi hotspot with your phone.

Starting PPL training soon & thinking ahead does anyone know if: 1) Foreflight highlights a recommended altitude based on input and/or real-time info? 2) Is there autopilot integration? and if 2, 3) Will Foreflight/Auto-pilot querie to reroute based on changing conditions and/or Internet Traffic? Thanks in advance!!

At 6:19 runway 5 has a 5kt headwind? I see a green arrow for 5kts on runway 5, and to me a green arrow indicates more speed, so I would think that it is a tailwind. I am wrong, did Ryan misspeak?

@ikmnjo2975 3 жыл бұрын

It's green because you want to take off into the wind not with it

IMO: Since most, if not all planes will have ADS-B in/out coming this January (per mandate) the cellular version isn't needed any longer

@rcbif101 4 жыл бұрын

Still gonna need cellular if you want to activate your flight plan with a click of a button. I also fly aircraft exempt from ADS-B that I still take cross country, so no aircraft gps to connect to there.

The main point of this app is for inflight use on a tablet. Apple really dominates the tablet market (even though I love my android-based kindle), and if you're a pilot that is using this product and shelling out the annual fee it makes sense to have a dedicated iPad for this app.

@@2011blueman - Old comment, but just want to point out it is incorrect. Though apple is the largest player, they lost their domination in the tablet market way back in 2012. Since 2013, other brands (likely most running Android) have pretty steadily made up 2/3rds of the market share.
