"The Aviators' Guide For Easily Navigating The Airspace
System"
LoPresti Aviation has acquired the rights to Howie Keefe's
Tri-Nav Chart print and digital products. RJ Siegel, CEO of
LoPresti Aviation and a developer of Apple products, stated
"LoPresti can now expand their reach from helping pilots make their
planes go faster to offering them digital apps for their cockpit
navigation, with print products for back-ups and land-based
planning. We are delighted to be working with Howie on his exciting
new products." This chart system will give the pilot, at a glance,
a comprehensive situation awareness. Howie's ability to develop
pilot friendly tools that meet the needs for cockpit versatility,
has been proven repeatedly.
The products include:
- Tri-Nav's unique aviation charts that can be used for both
legal IFR and VFR flight.
- Free Internet update service on the FAA's 28-day cycle.
- The "Shirt Pocket" series of AvData books.
- An atlas of WAC Charts in a 20 sm = 1" scale.
As Siegel put it, "Tri-Nav marries perfectly with LoPresti's
motto of pilot efficiency. Our next development project is to
support the bound Atlas with an iPad implementation. The central
problem with an iPad," continued Siegel, "is that the screen is too
small. The tabloid size of the Atlas lends itself to maximum
readability and ease of use. However, if the Atlas ever catches
fire, I guess you could always turn to the iPad," Siegel said
smiling.
Tri-Nav Chart will be available May 1, 2011.
