Layout and data included can be adapted to your airline's own needs and operational procedures.

An integration with your airline's flight planning provider and operational procedures is therefore necessary.

Why pilots love it Freehand drawing → waypoints: Turn any shape into a navigable series of Lat/Long coordinates in seconds. One-tap exports: Create FPL, KML, or CSV and share via Files, AirDrop, or the iOS share sheet. Map-first workflow: See your pattern as you draw—great for training routes, airshow practice, skywriting-style shapes, or just-for-fun sightseeing paths. iPhone & iPad: Use the device that’s already in your flight bag. File formats FPL (Garmin Flight Plan) KML (Keyhole Markup Language) CSV (Comma-Separated Values) Notes & safety FlyIt creates and exports route data; it does not file flight plans and is not for primary navigation. Always verify routes against current charts and regulations, and obtain ATC clearance as required.
