About
FOR FLIGHT SIMULATOR USE ONLY. Pilot Buddy is not approved for real-world flight planning, navigation or any operational aviation use.
Pilot Buddy puts the three tools flight simmers reach for most into one app, so the answer is on screen as soon as you finish typing.
TURN CALCULATOR
Enter your current heading and see the heading after a 90°, 180° and 270° turn. Handy for procedure turns and course reversals in the sim.
CROSSWIND CALCULATOR
Enter the runway or aircraft heading, the wind direction and the wind speed in knots. Pilot Buddy shows the headwind or tailwind component and the crosswind component, and which side it comes from.
AIRPORT INFORMATION
Type an airport identifier to see its runways, with designator, length and surface, and its radio frequencies, such as ATIS, ground and tower. The built-in database has about 48,000 airports worldwide.
WORKS OFFLINE
Every calculation runs on your device, and the airport data is built into the app. No account, no internet connection, no ads.
PRIVATE
Pilot Buddy collects no data and makes no network connections.
IMPORTANT
Information in this app may be inaccurate, incomplete or out of date. Never use Pilot Buddy as a substitute for official charts, certified avionics, NOTAMs or guidance from air traffic control. Use it with flight simulation software, for simulation and entertainment only.
