Company Offers Comprehensive Web-Based Flight Planning
The FAA will discontinue the Direct User Access Terminal Service (DUATS) at 2359 ET this Wednesday, May 16, and for pilots in search of a DUATS replacement, iFlightPlanner is encouraging them to look no further than an iFlightPlanner Free membership.
All single-pilot iFlightPlanner memberships include comprehensive web-based flight planning, digital aeronautical charts, hi-res weather imagery, certified weather briefs and flight plan filing through Leidos Flight Service, and wireless sync functionality with iFlightPlanner for iPad — all at no cost, with zero obligation to upgrade.
“We were the first to bring wireless sync technology to the EFB market when we introduced iFlightPlanner for iPad to compliment iFlightPlanner.com,” said Andy Matthews, iFlightPlanner’s Director of Business Development, “and now we’re one of the last flight planning providers to offer a membership that is completely free to its users.”
Some of the iFlightPlanner features include:
- Intuitively plan routes in the U.S.
- View hi-resolution weather graphics
- Retrieve certified weather briefs
- Calculate aircraft weight & balance
- File ICAO flight plans
- Fly with GPS moving map on your iPad
- View georeferenced airport diagrams and IAPs
- Connect to various ADS-B devices
- Close flight plans electronically
- Maintain a digital pilot logbook
iFlightPlanner Premium members enjoy enhanced features both online and in iFlightPlanner for iPad, with iFlightPlanner Premium Plus members having access to the complete set of georeferenced U.S. airport diagrams and instrument approach procedures on the iPad.
