9月7日 的 FlightPlanOnline 應用程式分析

FlightPlanOnline is a VFR flight planning app and moving map for pilots flying in southern Africa. Plan the flight on the chart, fly it with the airspace and the frequencies in front of you, and land with your logbook already filled in. THE MOVING MAP Southern African airspace, aerodromes and reporting points, with the aeronautical overlay drawn over your choice of base map. Aerodromes are drawn the way a chart draws them — a solid disc for a hard runway, an open circle for grass — each turned to its own runway heading, so you can read the field before you read the label. Zoom out and nearby fields group together so the chart stays legible. Tap anywhere to see what is underneath: the aerodromes nearby and every piece of airspace overhead, with the frequency for each and its upper and lower limits. FLIGHT PLANNING Build a route by pressing the chart. Points snap to aerodromes and to VFR reporting points, so aiming at Steel Works gives you Steel Works rather than a coordinate. A plan on the map is a plan you can change — drag any point and it moves. Drag the cross on a leg to add a turning point in the middle of it. Search an aerodrome by name and add it without leaving what you are doing. Routes can end where they began, for a local flight out and back. Plans are saved to your account and are there on every device you sign in on. AERODROMES Frequencies, runway dimensions and surface, fuel prices, operator contacts and procedures — on one screen, with the NOTAMs for that field. Last light is worked out for the aerodrome you are looking at, not for wherever you happen to be sitting. Over the length of the country that is the better part of an hour. Phone numbers, email addresses and websites can be tapped to call, write or open the site. IN THE AIR Your aircraft on the chart with track, groundspeed and altitude, and the next waypoint with its bearing, distance and estimate. Warnings when controlled airspace or a danger area lies ahead, with the frequency you will need before you reach it. Direct-to any aerodrome, for a diversion. Trips record automatically. Recording continues with the screen locked and the phone in a pocket, so a locked phone does not leave a straight line across everything you flew. WHEN YOU LAND Your logbook entry is written for you — route, times and landings, including night landings worked out from last light rather than assumed. Weight and balance for each aircraft on your account, with the envelope drawn and the loaded point on it. OFF THE NETWORK Download map areas before you go. The chart, your plans and your aircraft all work with no signal, which is the normal condition on most of the aprons this app is used on. ALSO IN THE APP Share a live link so somebody on the ground can follow your flight. Fly with friends and see each other on the map — this shows only FlightPlanOnline users who have chosen to share, and is not traffic awareness or collision avoidance. A flight simulator, for flying a plan through on the ground before you fly it for real. Light and dark themes. ACCOUNT FlightPlanOnline requires an account, which is managed at flightplanonline.co.za. Your plans, aircraft, pilots and logbook live on that account and follow you between devices. FlightPlanOnline is an aid to VFR situational awareness. It is not a substitute for official aeronautical charts, a pre-flight briefing, or current NOTAM and weather information from the responsible authority. Stay Connected Anytime, Anywhere With cloud-based access, your flight plans are always up-to-date and available when you need them. Whether planning ahead or adjusting mid-flight, Flight Plan Online ensures a smooth and stress-free experience. Download Now & Take Control of Your Flight Planning!
