GPS-Enabled Terrain-Aware Moving Map? There's An App For That

WingX Version 3.0 For iPhone Now Available

The glass cockpit has come to your pocket. Hilton Software LLC today announced “WingX for iPhone” Version 3.0 with GPS-Enabled Terrain-Aware Moving Map. WingX’s touchscreen integration reduces heads-down time while enabling smooth scrolling across the contiguous US, Mexico, Puerto Rico, and Bahamas.

WingX’s Moving Map has one-touch access to the A/FD, AOPA Directory, and NACO Approach Charts and Airport Diagrams. “We are very excited to add GPS-Enabled Moving Map to WingX for iPhone. WingX now enables pilots to carry just one device for their moving map, DUATS, weather text and images, A/FD, AOPA Directory, and all NACO approach charts and airport diagram in the US. Modifying the route, obtaining A/FD or AOPA Directory information or viewing an approach chart is initiated by one tap on the identifier. No knob twiddling or complicated instructions. WingX for iPhone Version 3.0 is also faster, uses less memory, adds TFR images, AF/D information for Puerto Rico and the Bahamas, and adds aircraft lookup. All this for under $100.” said Dr. Hilton Goldstein, company founder and CEO.

WingX for iPhone runs on iPhone, iPhone 3G, iPhone 3GS, and iPod Touch. WingX for iPhone Version 3.0 requires iPhone OS 3.0 (or later).

The iPhone application is available for download from the Apple App Store. BlackBerry and Windows Mobile versions can be found at the Hilton Software website.
