Do you ever wish you could see what the pilot sees while you are flying. Well now you can. With Aircraft Copilot you can check your current Airspeed in Knots, Altitude in feet, Direction of travel using Analogue and Digital Compass and Aircraft orientation using the artificial Horizon. See how much the Aircraft is rising or descending and angle of bank. You can also enter your Destination Airport and see the distance you have to travel. This updates in real time on the live map (requires an onboard wifi Connection – not available on all Aircraft) To enter your chosen Airport you can enter the city Name or better to use the icaoCode or iataCode. This will give details like: Distance to destination, icaoCode, iataCode, destination Timazone, Destination Local Time, Airport Elevation, City Name and Official Airport Name. The Map shows the direct line of flight from your Current position to the Destination Airport and is pinchable and zoomable and updates automatically as your position changes. Please note that this app is intended for entertainment and information use only and should not be used for the actual navigation of an aircraft in flight. Aircraft Copilot work best when fitted to a stand to keep the iphone steady and facing frontwards. All Options apart from Airport search will work in Aeroplane Mode. a Link to our privacy policy can be found here: https://www.banjosoft.co.uk/privacy-aircraft-copilot and also within the App.

Stats for nerds, finally for passengers! See turbulence, cabin pressure, g-forces, and real flight data from your airliner in real time. Flight CoPilot makes clever use of the full suite of iPhone sensors to register real-time flight dynamics. • Turbulence level is displayed on a real-time seismograph and logged for your flight session. • G-force is monitored in real time during manoeuvres, takeoffs, and landings. • Cabin altitude is accurately measured to display the pressurisation profile of your journey. • Aircraft altitude, position, and ground speed are derived from passive GPS signals. Reception may be limited depending on aircraft type and seat location, and this is monitored and indicated in real time. • Airports are automatically detected at departure and arrival. • The virtual horizon display tracks roll and pitch. • Compass shows your current heading and deviation. • Full flight logs with all information are stored locally on your device for later review. • No accounts, no servers, no tracking. And it all runs in Airplane Mode. • It also has a very… very cool night mode. Flight CoPilot is built to be efficient. Native, lightweight, and optimised for long flights, it delivers continuous data without draining your battery. This is the “stats for nerds” of aviation: turbulence, g-forces, cabin pressure, altitude, speed, navigation, and other flight data at your fingertips.
