EasyCockpit vs Enroute Flight Navigation

EasyCockpit is a comprehensive aviation navigation tool for mobile devices and has for many years aided pilots by improving their situational awareness when flying in Southern Africa. This GPS moving map software with detailed information will make your flying experience in this part of the African continent a safer one. The high-resolution clear vector map is offering an extensive airfields database including communication and navigation frequencies, runway information, fuel availability, cautionary notes, and sunrise/sunset times. Full airspace information, including special VFR routings and reporting points around congested areas, makes this GPS moving map a must for pilots flying in Southern Africa. Visit our website for details on how to obtain the full version. Comprehensive Mapping data Coverage: South Africa, Botswana, Lesotho, Malawi, Namibia, Swaziland, Angola, Mozambique, Zambia, Zimbabwe Flight Planning by selecting waypoints/ abeam waypoints from database or map. Option to insert Airspace Intersection. Option to upload routes from EasyPlan. Layers can be switched on or off. Terrain display FlightLog displays distance to next waypoint, ground speed, desired track, ETE and ETA. Also displays current position in relation to recognized VFR points for accurate reporting. Direct-To function shows the 10 nearest airfields and 10 nearest navaids or other points. Move-To button lets you quickly find a point from the database to check details and view it on the map. HSI needle determines the distance off Track. The RMI needles allow you to choose one or two points to which the needles will point to provide a bearing. The OBI radial or Track-To can be selected to be displayed from any waypoint, navaid or airfield. E6B calculator allows for accurate and speedy calculation of density altitude, true airspeed, windspeed and direction. Airspace, obstacle and Terrain warnings. Fly in Track-Up or North-Up mode. Continued use of GPS running in the background can dramatically decrease battery life.

Enroute is a non-commercial flight navigation app written by flight enthusiasts for VFR pilots. Designed to be simple, functional, and elegant, it takes the stress out of your next flight. Enroute features a moving map similar in style to the official ICAO maps. Your current position and your flight path for the next five minutes are marked, and so is your intended flight route. A simple tap gives you all the information about airspaces, airfields, and navaids – complete with frequencies, codes, elevations, and runway information. Our aeronautical maps are free, receive weekly updates, and cover large parts of the world. Selected maps show traffic circuits and flight procedures for control zones. Enroute supports essential flight planning. It allows you to quickly and easily compute distances, courses, and headings. It gives you an estimate for flight time and fuel consumption. If the weather turns bad, the app will show you the closest airfields for landing, complete with distances, directions, runway information, and frequencies. There is no advertising and no commercial “pro”-version of the app. We do not spy on you. You do not need to register for “membership.” And we do not hassle you with e-mails. We do not even have or want your address! Disclaimer: We publish this free app hoping that it might be helpful as an aid to prudent navigation. It comes with no guarantees. It may not work as expected. The data does not come from official sources and might be incomplete, outdated, or otherwise incorrect. This app is no substitute for proper flight preparation or good pilotage. Relying on it as a primary means of navigation is most likely illegal, undoubtedly stupid, and potentially suicidal.
