ForeFlight Releases Latest Update To Version 10

Offers New Smart Airspace Features, Improved Search

The latest version of ForeFlight 10 builds upon a decade of innovation and delivers fantastic new smart airspace features, improved search capability to help you find what you need faster, automatic chart and data updates to keep your device ready to fly, and more, the company said in an email to the media.

ForeFlight’s improved app-wide Search functionality is smarter, faster, and more consistent across app views. Quickly find routes, cities, airports, aeronautical information, and procedures, as well as street addresses or intersections, place names (eg: “Central Park”), and scheduled flights.

ForeFlight 10 builds on the company's commitment to make flying easier through automation. You now have the option to automatically download chart and data updates when connected to Wi-Fi, according to the release.

In addition to terrain and obstacles, Profile View now features an interactive vertical depiction of controlled, MOA, SUA, and TFR airspaces along your planned route. In the air, Profile View shows the aircraft’s altitude in relation to airspace along the flight track in real time. Airspace Highlight considers the flight’s climb, cruise, and descent trajectory and uses the Aeronautical Maps layer to automatically highlight airspace near the aircraft or along the route of flight. All other airspace dims to reduce visual clutter on the map.

ForeFlight now features Jeppesen’s global airspace information for FIRs, UIRs, controlled airspace, and special use airspace. Tap-hold anywhere on the Maps view to access center and radio frequencies, RVSM cruise tables, operational notes, speed restrictions, prior notification procedures, and communication details for CPDLC and satellite services.

As part of the ForeFlight Connect platform, ForeFlight provides an expanded version of the industry-standard GDL 90 Data Interface Specification for third-party devices to transmit live inflight weather, traffic, AHRS, device name information, and GPS data to ForeFlight Mobile.
