## What is FlightDecide?

A good go/no-go call weighs weather, NOTAMs, runway performance, and fuel all at once. FlightDecide pulls them into one briefing and gives you a clear GO, CAUTION, or NO GO to review before you leave the ground.

Build your flight and get an AI-assisted preflight briefing that gathers the scattered pieces in one place:

• Path to GO: for CAUTION and NO GO flights, the exact changes that would flip the call
• Free pilot tools: a built-in E6B suite (crosswind, density altitude, true airspeed, weight and balance, and more) that works offline and stays free on every plan
• Aviation weather: METARs, TAFs, winds aloft, SIGMETs, G-AIRMETs, and PIREPs
• NOTAM awareness for departure and destination
• Weight and balance with a CG envelope check and specific load fixes
• Takeoff and landing performance against actual runway lengths
• Fuel planning with legal reserves and your personal minimum fuel
• Cruise altitude: every altitude scored for winds, icing, and turbulence

Every flight is scored across 8 risk categories, from weather and NOTAMs to performance, fuel, and weight and balance, then summarized as one GO, CAUTION, or NO GO. Set your personal minimums for ceiling, visibility, wind, and fuel, and your limits go into every analysis.

Instead of jumping between a weather app, a NOTAM lookup, a performance chart, and a fuel calculator, you check one briefing. Export any analysis as a PDF for your records.

FlightDecide is an advisory tool only and doesn't replace official weather briefings, approved aircraft data, or pilot in command judgment. Always verify critical information with official sources before flight.

## Version history (last 4 releases)

### 1.2.1 — 2026-08-19

This release is mostly about the app telling you the truth about what it knows.

The app no longer tells you an airport publishes no METAR or TAF when the real
story is that the fetch failed. That claim used to appear on the same branch as
a network error, so a station with a perfectly good report could read as a
station that files nothing. The model-forecast badge made the same mistake in
two cases where a TAF exists. Both are fixed, the briefing's weather summary now
distinguishes "we asked and the call failed" from "this station publishes
nothing", and a brief provider error is retried before anything gets declared
missing.

Weight and balance uses your aircraft's real CG envelope. The app used to keep
only two corner points, so a tapered envelope became a rectangle. The full
certified envelope now travels end to end, the table on the aircraft placard
comes from the library rather than from a guess, and a caption tells you when a
limit between two published points was interpolated.

Personal minimums are checked, not assumed. The banner, the PAVE pilot chip and
the summary line all read the same ledger. The green "within your minimums"
line appears only when every enforced limit was measured and cleared. A breach
names the limit it broke, and a ceiling or visibility we couldn't measure says
so instead of showing green.

Significant weather buried in the remarks section is now read. Funnel clouds,
smoke, dust and pressure changes reported only in remarks get a signal on the
card, and a tornado that has ended no longer looks like one in progress.

The exported briefing record says what it is. Every export carries the time it
was made in labelled UTC, the build that produced it, and a line stating it
isn't an official weather briefing. Filenames start with the analysis time so
records sort in order, exports include the NOTAMs they say they retrieved, and
a runway closure is no longer filed under performance estimates.

Accessibility: the "Analysis Failed" card shows its whole message at large text
sizes, and the analysis progress rows tell VoiceOver which stage they're in
rather than just their name.

Also fixed: an edge-proxy error no longer shows raw proxy text as the failure
reason, and airspace data holds up when the FAA rate limits us.

### 1.2.0 — 2026-08-09

Adding an aircraft is faster and clearer. Type what you know into one field
and FlightDecide works out the rest, showing you each step while it researches.
A completion strip tells you which numbers are still missing before the profile
is ready to fly with.

Fixed a crash. On iOS 26 the app could quit at the moment an analysis finished.
That's resolved.

Your GO, CAUTION or NO-GO verdict now stays pinned at the top of the result
while you scroll.

Airports with no TAF now show an advisory model forecast, labelled as a model
so you know what you're looking at, instead of showing nothing.

Weight and balance and rate-of-climb figures were re-checked against POH and
TCDS sources across the built-in aircraft library. If you fly one of these
types, some of your baseline numbers have changed. Worth a look before your
next flight.

Also fixed: result content no longer slides under the tab bar, the Analyze
button no longer sits on top of the fuel field, the data-gap card stopped
flagging gaps that weren't there, and a badge that wrongly claimed an
aerodrome publishes no TAF.

### 1.1.0 — 2026-07-24

New Tools tab: a free E6B calculator suite built into the app, with crosswind, density altitude, true airspeed, weight and balance, fuel and endurance, the wind triangle, time-speed-distance, descent and glide, and holding entries. All ten work offline and stay free on every plan, and a value you compute in one tool now carries into the others.

Plus reliability fixes across the app.

### 1.0 — 2026-07-17

No release notes.
