FlightCheck puts your checklists, the numbers and a kneeboard in one app built for the cockpit. CHECKLISTS FOR 25 AIRCRAFT From the Cessna 152 to the King Air, Phenom 300E and Robinson R44: single-engine, multi-engine, turboprop, jet and helicopter. Phase-by-phase normal procedures, from preflight and engine start through takeoff, cruise, landing and shutdown, with a progress bar that never leaves the screen and auto-scroll to the next item. EMERGENCIES, ONE PRESS AWAY Emergency and abnormal procedures, one press from any checklist. V-SPEEDS WITHOUT THE PAGE FLIP V-speeds, limits and quick-reference performance data from the POH, beside the checklist. SCRATCH PAD Write with a finger or Apple Pencil on pages made for flying: Blank, ATIS, CRAFT clearance, PIREP and Hold. Each ATIS page ghosts the last one, so you only write what changed. Your tail number is already on the clearance page, and ATIS, PIREP and Hold pages are stamped in Zulu. Three ink colours, a stroke eraser, and pages that never scroll or zoom. Notes stay on your device. CALCULATOR Thirteen E6B calculators: true airspeed, density altitude, crosswind and headwind, heading and groundspeed, winds aloft, compass heading, distance-speed-time, fuel required, fuel burn, endurance, rate of climb, required descent rate and top of descent. Star the ones you use most, and set your units once: feet or metres, gallons, litres or pounds, inHg or hPa. MAKE IT YOURS Dark, Night or Day mode, three colour palettes and four text sizes. Night mode keeps your night vision with a red palette on every screen. Edit your own checklist profiles and item notes for each aircraft; profiles, notes, favorites and settings sync across your devices. FREE AND PRO Preflight and emergency checklists are free for every aircraft, with no account needed. FlightCheck Pro unlocks every checklist phase, full V-speeds and performance data, editable profiles, the Scratch pad and the Calculator.
