Shift5 Integrates with ForeFlight for Safety Alerts

Dept of Defense Pilots Gain Extra Awareness Capability in EFB Combo

Department of Defense aircrews will get a nifty improvement to their flight planning workflow thanks to a collaboration between Shift5 and ForeFlight, notifying them of “cyber anomalies and potential system failures.”

It’s a new capability for ForeFlight, especially appropriate for DOD pilots. Shift5 isn’t really a household name for GA pilots the same way ForeFlight is, as it fills a pretty technical niche: Shift5 “brings order to the complexity of onboard data”, dealing with the backend information tech that underpins defense and transportation. That allows them to advise maintenance routines with predictive software, detect cybersecurity anomalies and threats, bolster compliance bookkeeping, and surveil GPS integrity in everyday operations.

"We're thrilled to work with Shift5 on this powerful new integration to further empower flight crews with real-time monitoring and alerting," said Henrik Hansen, CTO of ForeFlight. "Bringing together disparate sources of inflight data and delivering them to pilots via just one app showcases the transformative power of an integrated EFB like ForeFlight. It's clear that Shift5 shares this vision for the future of digital cockpit connectivity, and working with them to develop this new capability has been an absolute joy."
