taking away functions
Taking away smart plates from IFR pilots and only providing them to the jacked up price of jep subscription :/
App
Excelente.
Brilliant
This software is only getting better. Love the improvements
A great app for flight planning and safety awareness
I have been using OzRunways for about 8 years, and it is a really excellent app for flight planning, checking weather, and having the most up to date charts much more cost effectively than buying paper copies.
In particular it is great that there is a high uptake of people using the app and broadcasting their position, from the RAAF to gliders, and your iPad will show other users of OzRunways and those with ADSB. It doesn’t remove the need for a good look-out but it is a great feature.
The ‘pilot notes’ are great, particularly where they relate to fuel, and sometimes great places to stay.
In addition I have really enjoyed designing flights all over Australia, some of which I have then done.
I have now updated to the IFR subscription and anticipate that OzRunways will continue to be my go-to app for flight planning.

Frustrating to flight plan
Lots of brilliant stuff available, better access to features than Avplan. However, this company avoids making phone calls and hides behind an email address. At least with Avplan you can plan a flight from any point and select it as a start point. Oz Runways seems to have you start from wherever you are, eg suburban melbourne. Then you have to stuff around to delete your first leg. No start here available or obvious. Maybe there is a way, but it’s definitely not obvious. When you enquire, you get an email instead of a phone call, especially when you have requested a phone call. You need to do better !!!

Add manual customisable checklists please!!
Please add the ability to add customisable checklists to the app, integrate it in just how foreflight has done it , I’d much rather stay with OzRunways so please add it sooner rather than later in an update!
Top Flight Planning App
After spending many years in the airline industry where much of this work was done for you and you were really looked after, when I went back to my roots in GA I was somewhat reticent about how I would go about flight planning. A friend recommended OZ Runways and I have found it as good as anything that I have seen provided by the airline industry. It’s functionality is outstanding.

Locating towns
Be nice to have a search ability to locate towns with out airports
Always helps us on our travels
We love the app, have been flying a girocopter for yrs using it, & always have it on when travelling around our beautiful Aussie land.
This Seems to be the Australia and NZ industry standard.
But they are adding features all the time. Also, they seem to fix problems too. (They’re not like companies that keep adding features and not bothering to fix bugs.) Amazingly good.
Suggested Update
Could you please add the integration with Apple Watch back please. I would really find this helpful in many other ways like foreflight does. A live weather forecast update with METARs and tafs and a direct to waypoint would be very handy as backup.
Enjoying
Oz runways great to enjoy flying AGAIN
Unfortunately average
Its very good as stand alone or for planes with analog instrumentation. The lack of connectivity to systems like garmin G3X is Unfortunately its lets down. I will not be renewing.
Printing functionality for aerodrome plates is a 2 out of 10 at most. cant even print of a Mac book. again I guess its constrained by licensing issues.

With the name and email address
Privacy isn’t the best …

3d - syntetic vision
It is a 8/10 app. BUT, to be perfect you should have syntetic vision, for redundance!
Can you tell me if it is going to happen and when?
I am from Brazil.
Best regards.

Recently had an IPad issue while flying back to WA (wait awhile) from SAAA AusFly24 at Wentworth. Emailed Rowan and was able to solve the problem en route. Know that instant response is not always possible but the team at OzRunways go all out for customer service and it’s appreciated. Greg
