SoaringForecast vs SkySoar

SoaringForecast provides weather forecast information of interest to glider pilots for the New England and Mifflin areas. Turnpoints can be downloaded and used to create tasks, and a task can be overlaid on the forecast. Soundings, special use airspace, and turnpoints can also be overlaid on the forecast. Tapping on a turnpoint will display an overhead view of the turnpoint. Long press on a turnpoint, taskturnpoint or map location will provide a local forecast graph. Task estimates (task time, estimated tail/head winds, ground speed, thermalling estimates) can be calculated based on selected model/date/time. METARs/TAFs come from 1800wxbrief. Authorizing your 1800WxBrief account to allow SoaringForecast to request briefs, you can get a local or task briefing (based on current selected task)

SkySoar gives glider pilots a tool to easily keep track of their flights while getting detailed insights into their flight data, like an automatic calculation of the practice state. How many winch launches did I do this year? This question is hard to answer when looking at your conventional pilot log book, as it gives you very limited insight into your flying activities. SkySoar gives you a dashboard at hand that is customisable. With SkySoar you can get detailed, custom insights, into your flying activities, like the amount of winch launches in the current year or your practice state, calculated based on the flights you did within the last six months. Features - Flight Log Management: Allows pilots to add, edit and delete flights. - Practice State Visualisation: Displays the pilot's practice state using a color coded system. - Onboarding: The app comes with an onboarding sequence and the ability to add sample flight data for new users to explore the app. The following Terms of Use (EULA) apply to SkySoar: https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/
