Flight!! vs Jeb's Flight Bag

support for flight planning

Jeb's Flight Bag is a next-generation Electronic Flight Bag built for pilots who want a serious cockpit toolkit without the lock-in of subscription-only iPad apps. WHAT YOU GET • Moving map with FAA VFR Sectional, IFR Low, IFR High, satellite, and dark-mode tile layers — pinch-to-zoom on the tablet, scroll-wheel on the desktop. • Live ADS-B traffic via Sentry, Stratux, Stratus, Garmin GDL, uAvionix SkyEcho — anything that broadcasts GDL90 over WiFi. • Real WAAS GPS from your portable receiver — even on a WiFi-only iPad with no internal GPS chip. • NEXRAD weather radar over the US (Iowa State Mesonet, sub-km, ~2 min refresh) and RainViewer worldwide composite outside CONUS. • FAA d-TPP approach plates with georeferenced ownship overlay — the aircraft chevron moves on the plate at the right pixel position as you fly. • METAR / TAF / NOTAMs / SIGMETs / PIREPs / TFRs / winds aloft, with color-coded VFR / MVFR / IFR / LIFR flight category dots at every airport on the map. • Two-finger touch ruler — measure nm + bearing between any two points. • Synthetic-vision PFD-style attitude indicator from your device's IMU. The rotation-vector sensor is fused even on tablets without a gyroscope. • ATC frequency reference, nearest airports / navaids / fixes, ICAO route export, ForeFlight-style auto-routing with SID/STAR insertion. • Pilot's Operating Handbook reference — Cessna 152, 172, 182, Piper PA-28, Cirrus SR22, plus PDF upload that uses Claude AI to extract V-speeds, weights, fuel, and performance numbers from any aircraft's POH. • Performance calculator: density altitude, takeoff / landing distance with weight, headwind, and POH baseline corrections. • On-device LLM copilot — answers flight-planning questions, decodes METAR-ese, walks emergency checklists. Routes to Anthropic's Claude API when an API key is configured, falls back to bundled MLC LLM locally on capable hardware. WHO IT'S FOR • Student pilots who can't justify $99/yr ForeFlight subscriptions. • Builders and homebuilt operators who want an EFB on a Raspberry Pi panel. • International pilots flying outside FAA territory — the moving map and radar are worldwide; everything else gracefully falls back to the relevant regional AIP via browser deep-link. • AI-curious aviators who want a copilot in the cockpit without sending their flight data to a corporate server. WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW • Coverage today is North America (United States + Canada). Airports, navaids, fixes, airways, approach plates, and ADS-B fallback are sourced from FAA / Nav Canada data. The moving map renders worldwide via OpenStreetMap tiles, but other layers are best-effort outside North America. • This app is provided for situational awareness ONLY. It is NOT a primary navigation source and NOT a substitute for current sectionals, plates, or certified onboard avionics. Read the in-app liability disclaimer before flight. • Sentry, Stratus, Stratux, Garmin GDL, and SkyEcho are trademarks of their respective owners. Orchestr Inc. is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or partnered with any receiver manufacturer; Jebediah simply consumes the public GDL90 broadcast each device emits on its WiFi hotspot. • Optional Claude API key (from console.anthropic.com) unlocks AI POH parsing and the on-device copilot. Without a key, regex-based POH import + offline copilot still work. NOT FOR • Use as a sole means of compliance with FAA, EASA, Transport Canada, or other regulatory navigation requirements. • Replacement of certified onboard avionics or current published charts. • Operations where loss of the EFB would create a safety hazard.
