Real-Time Spatial Data: Instantly view your current GPS coordinates, Ground Speed (in knots), True Track, and Altimeter details. Preserve Night Vision: Seamlessly toggle between high-contrast Day Mode and light-controlled Night Mode to reduce cockpit glare. 2. INTERACTIVE CHECKLISTS & CUSTOM BUILDER Reduce cognitive load during critical phases of flight with our advanced checklist engine. Pre-loaded Checklists: Access standard GA templates including Pre-flight, Engine Start, Run-up, Takeoff, Cruise, Descent, Landing, and Securing.

Active Timers: Monitor your current flight duration in real-time alongside your historical logbook registry. 4.
