Layout and data included can be adapted to your airline's own needs and operational procedures. The real data presented in the Flight Briefing App will come from your Airline's flight planning system (PPS, Navblue N-Flight Planning, other providers upon request), and contain the same information as you get in a traditional paper briefing package. An integration with your airline's flight planning provider and operational procedures is therefore necessary.

Draw it. Fly it. Share it. FlyIt lets pilots sketch an exotic or precise path right on the map and instantly converts it into a series of latitude/longitude waypoints. Export your route as a Garmin FPL file, KML, or CSV and open it in your favorite flight-planning software on the same device. 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.
