PlaneVector is the complete digital flight companion for general aviation pilots and aircraft owners — built around official FAA charts, real-time weather, and a fully offline-capable cockpit experience. AVIATION MAPS Fly with FAA Sectional, IFR Low, and IFR High charts displayed natively on your device. Charts download for offline use so you always have coverage, even without cell service. Airspace boundaries, TFRs, and IFR airways overlay directly on the chart layer so you can see the full operational picture at a glance. Range rings, route polylines, and your own-ship position update in real time using GPS. FLIGHT PLANNING & NAVLOG Build routes on the map by dropping waypoints or searching by identifier. PlaneVector automatically generates a complete navigation log with leg distances, headings, estimated fuel, and time en route based on your aircraft profile and current winds aloft. Departure and destination weather are shown inline so you can brief and plan in one place. WEATHER BRIEFING Get decoded METARs, TAFs, SIGMETs, PIREPs, and winds aloft for any airport. Flight categories are color-coded for fast go/no-go assessment. Density altitude, crosswind components, and ceiling/visibility risks are computed automatically — no mental math required. DIGITAL LOGBOOK Log every flight with the detail you need and the format regulators expect. Import your existing logbook from ForeFlight, CSV, or other sources. Export to PDF for insurance, training, or checkride submissions. Currency calculations run automatically from your log — never miss a landing requirement or IFR recency deadline. CURRENCY TRACKING Track day and night passenger-carrying currency, IFR recency, flight review, and medical validity in one dashboard. Status indicators turn red before deadlines hit so you can schedule training proactively rather than react to an expired currency on the ramp. AIRCRAFT & MAINTENANCE Manage your aircraft's spec sheet, equipment list, and document vault (POH, W&B, STCs, insurance). View the complete maintenance history logged by your shop. Submit maintenance requests directly to connected A&P shops and track repair status in real time — no phone tag required. PERFORMANCE & SAFETY TOOLS Weight and balance calculator with configurable station profiles. Aircraft performance profiles for takeoff, cruise, and landing. True airspeed, density altitude, fuel burn, and crosswind calculators. Custom checklist builder for any aircraft or operation. ENGINE HEALTH (JPI EDM) Import engine monitor data directly from JPI EDM 700/800/900 series instruments. Review cylinder head temperatures, exhaust gas temperatures, and fuel flow trend by flight. Catch engine anomalies early with flight-by-flight health visualization. OFFLINE FIRST FAA chart tiles, airport data, and airspace information all download for offline use. PlaneVector works without a data connection — ideal for remote flying, international travel, or areas with poor coverage.
