  • I love it

    But I’m learning about more features like a radar map and much more. I love an airport on the radar map. But it take time.

  • Good Flight Planner

    A good flight planner. It would be great if it had a flight profile view. I use it before every cross-country.
  • Works for me!

    This planner does everything I need. When I need help, customer support is on it immediately. Thank you for an inexpensive and sufficiently robust planner.
  • Powerful and affordable aviation app

    Pros: All the essential pre-flight, flight, and post-flight functions in a very affordable application. The pre-flight planning and filing are both simple to understand for pilots and robust in depth for professionals. The inflight functions are top of the line when paired with an external GPS/ADS-B (I especially like the historical flight track for evaluating ground reference maneuvers). The post-flight logging is also very useful for easily recording logbook information immediately after a flight as well as having a basic reminder on proficiency (love the custom log entries sections, I fly a lot of different aircraft).

    Cons: As with any specialized application, it takes some initial use and experience to learn the finer points of the app beyond the basics. That however is dependent on your use the website, iPad, or iPhone versions of the application. I feel the website is the best for pre-flight planning (I haven’t figured out how to tie flights together in the app like I do on the website). The external GPS/ADS-B is a con in that you must be aware some of them are proprietary (i.e. they only work with ForeFlight), so be careful if you do buy one to work with this app.

    Summary: Overall this has been a great purchase. It allows for more flexibility in my budget for some additional personal flying adventures. Having all the essentials with iFlightPlanner, I can focus more on aviating and less on admin.

    As a multi-licensed CFII, recommend this application over others due to its balance between simple and complex functions, with an affordable work subsidy (e.g. copilot admin work the app does for you).

  • Cheap way to fly & log

    I like the app, it has a great logbook as well which I use consistently. Includes a place to add route information so that you can see basically you did multiple legs and landed at different airports without having to start a new flight for short hops over to an airport that’s 10 miles away etc.
    Cannot say the same thing about Log10 which is useless at that. (I get it that they want to have every flight to a different airport logged at a XC for Pt. 135 and/or 121 mins., but it’s still a pain.)

    I see 172Capt said 10 years ago that it crashes a lot. Don’t find that true, but my iPad that is really old crashes a lot.

    I also like the timer that can come up on the same page as the plate.

    AND much cheaper than Foreflight!

    Developer Response

    Thanks for your review and kind words about our support! Providing first class support has been a core principle since day one. We're always happy to help. On our Downloads, you can download the entire US at once without having to select every state. To do so, go to the Downloads tab, tap Settings at the top right, then select "United States" under "Download Region Selections." We see now the "United States" option could look like a header for the list of states, rather than an option itself! In addition, we are well into development for our iPhone version, so keep your eyes out for that in the near future!
  • Excellent Value

    I used the free version of IFlight Planner when I fly my Kitfox 3 from Seattle to Houston to Kitty Hawk and back to Seattle before the days of ADS-B. It was very adequate. Now in order to support ADS-B in, I subscribe. It is still a bargain. Customer support is superior to ANY product line inside or outside aviation. I couldn’t recommend it more highly.
