Access Many Popular Portions Of FAA.Gov From Your Phone Or Tablet

The FAA has rolled out a service for iOS and Android mobile devices to give pilots and other access to the FAA.gov website from their phones or tablets.
 
Users can look up N-numbers, find Advisory Circulars, browse airport delays, and more. The FAA Mobile website allows users to stay connected with popular features of FAA.gov from any location – whether it be the hangar, the office, or home. Also accessible are the full web version of FAA.gov by tapping a link at the bottom of any FAA Mobile page.

FAA Mobile fully supports iOS 4 and higher, as well as Android 2.2 and higher.
 
Among the features available through the mobile service are:

• N-Number Lookup. Look up any aircraft's N-number to see ownership, registration, aircraft manufacturer and model, and more information.
• U.S. Airport Status and Delays. Review information about airport status and delays across the entire National Airspace System (NAS), or look up the status of a particular airport to plan your travel schedule.
• Advisory Circular (AC) Lookup. Find and read advisory circulars to help you comply with FAA regulations.
• Flight Standards District Office (FSDO) Locator. Locate the closest offices based on your current location, if you have Location Services enabled on your device. You can also locate FSDOs by region or by office name.
• Wildlife Strike Reporting. Report an aircraft wildlife strike or edit an existing wildlife strike report.
• News and Press Releases. Read the three most recent FAA news stories and press releases.

FAA Mobile 1.0 is not a mobile application; rather, it is a set of pages and services that are optimized for viewing on mobile devices. It fully supports iOS 4 and higher as well as Android 2.2 and higher. The Blackberry (RIM), Windows Mobile, and WebOS platforms are untested. If you view FAA Mobile on one of those platforms, your user experience may not be optimal.
