Integrates Seattle Avionics' Auto-Router Route Planning
Capability
Hilton Software LLC announces WingX Pro7 support for iPhone
including its 3D Synthetic Vision and optional AHRS integration.
Enhancements to WingX Pro7 Synthetic Vision include new
pinch-to-zoom and swipe-to-pitch capabilities that provide a pilot
with look-around ability and a new Birds Eye View mode enabling
pilots to get an expansive 3D terrain view. WingX Pro7 Version 6.1
also adds support for Zaon Traffic integration, the ability to view
flights in Google Earth and logbook support with AvConnect. Version
6.1 seamlessly integrates Seattle Avionics’ award-winning
auto-router for fast and powerful route planning.
“The aviation industry was amazed when we introduced our
advanced 3D Synthetic Vision at EAA Airventure on iPad," said
Hilton software CEO Dr. Hilton Goldstein. "As an illustration of
its incredible performance and flexibility, our 3D Synthetic Vision
is now available on iPhone and is even more powerful now with the
new pinch-to-zoom, swipe-to-pitch, and Birds Eye View enhancements.
Now you really don’t need a $3,000 dedicated hardware device
for 3D Synthetic Vision, just your cell phone. With the optional
AHRS unit from Levil Technology a pilot’s iPhone is
transformed into a real-time Attitude Indicator with 3D Synthetic
Vision – a perfect fit for the light sport market. Our
advanced multi-platform design enables pilots to view in-flight
weather simultaneously on their iPhone and iPad using an ADS-B
receiver. WingX Pro7 can now plan your flights on the iPad using
Seattle Avionics auto-routing engine. After landing, you can review
the entire flight in Google Earth and wirelessly add the flight
information to your online AvConnect logbook. Another 20 new
features were added to Version 6.1, all are included in the WingX
Pro7 30-day free trial. Our increasingly powerful framework and
compression algorithms enable WingX Pro7 to move enormous amounts
of data. At this point we’re only limited by our
imagination.”
“WingX Pro7 has always been an indispensable tool for
pilots,” said Steve Podradchik, CEO of Seattle Avionics.
“Now Hilton Software raises the bar again by enabling pilots
to plan flights using WebPlan, our award-winning, wind-optimized
auto-routing engine all from within WingX Pro7.”
Erik Murrey, CEO of AvConnect, stated, "Hilton’s ability
to partner with innovative companies like AvConnect sets a new
standard in the industry for what’s possible from the
cockpit. Our integration with WingX Pro7 gives customers the
easiest and most reliable way to store every flight record.
Pilots’ logbooks and maintenance times are instantly updated.
Our Google Earth flight maps are an invaluable tool for training
and flight history.”
Availability WingX Pro7 Version 6.1 is a free update for
registered users and is available now for download from the App
Store and iTunes. Synthetic Vision requires a separate $99 annual
subscription. See company website for a complete feature list by
platform.
