Description of Cloud Topper

Pilots, it's time to get rid of your sight level, water bottle or whatever "old school" method you have been using to determine cloud height. Introducing Cloud Topper, a revolutionary new sight level designed specifically for the iPad and iPhone. With Cloud Topper you can use your device camera, gyroscope and accelerometer as a traditional sight level. Plus you can enter the distance to a cloud and Cloud Topper will calculate your height above or below that cloud. The displayed cloud height is even corrected for the curvature of the earth. Cloud topper is a fun, easy to use app that should be included in every pilots EFB. Cloud Topper is not an FAA approved source to determine cloud height. Cloud Topper is not intended to replace weather radar or pilot skills and judgement. Always consult the Aircraft Manufacturer’s Aircraft Flight Manuals, Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) websites and publications, and individual company policies.

  • Great, simple tool

    I use this app weekly to determine tops of cells and required altitude to clear a buildup or cloud bank. It does require correlation between radar/stormscope info for best accuracy. NEXRAD works in a pinch.
  • Useless

    I haven’t found this useful at all. No clear instructions on how to calibrate or where to put the lines.

  • Wasted 99 cents.

    This app is difficult to close. Locked up my I pad during flight. Had to reboot and bring ForeFlight back up. Not a good problem to try to solve while in flight. Had to hand my iPad to passenger to solve the problem. I should have practiced first and I would have know not to use this app while in flight.

    Hello Old Rancher Dude, The older versions of Cloud Topper only has support for landscape orientation. This could make the app confusing to close if you were holding the device in the portrait orientation. Our newest release has support for all orientations. To close the app, simply swipe up from the bottom of the screen like you would with other iOS apps. Hops that helps.
