Foreflight is the most important app in the world. The safety that comes from the awareness that this product delivers is hard to overstate. From the traffic awareness and advisories, weather information, and flight planning tools it provides, foreflight is worth its weight in gold as it will save your life.
This video shows how I set up foreflight in my life as a helicopter pilot and flight instructor. The ways in which it provides extreme value to my career and safety and why I advocate that any pilot needs to have it.

ForeFlight is the GOAT. Priceless.

@M14Jeep 11 месяцев назад

Not all aircraft have ADS-B out and the ones that do will sometimes break and not transmit. It's important to still visually monitor for aircraft because I've seen many aircraft with either no ADS-B or non-functioning ADS-B or intermittent ADS-B

@JustaPilot1 Месяц назад

It's not just aircraft with ADS-B out. All the "in" receivers receive position data from the ADS-B towers around the country. That includes aircraft without ADS-B out but have an encoding transponder that is turned in. It's a broadcast from ATC and is just about real time.

I upgraded to the mid-tier subscription and with the sentry and my iPad mini I have AHRS with the terrain and sectional on the same screen.

@PilotDevin Год назад

I think that is the best plan they have! Great price for everything you need

@googletrex Год назад

I didn’t realize you get in flight radar with the ads-b in feature. Good to know. I use this daily and agree with every point you made here. And having access to all the instrument plates was huge for me in getting my instrument rating. Worth the subscription. Another feature that isn’t “legal” but can be life saving in a pinch is the AHRS information that the sentry gives you and you can pull up an artificial horizon with a PFD on it so that if you did end up IIMC, you have a fighting chance to recover and get out of the clouds without losing orientation.

@PilotDevin Год назад

Great comment!!

@BrentDanley Год назад

I LOVE your video and agree with the primary features. The MOST important feature of ForeFlight is your ownship on a chart. That has saved so many lives. Second is having all your charts and supplements with you in a compact and accessible format.

@PilotDevin Год назад

Totally agree!

@DrTom1946 Год назад

Great overview. I have two grandsons, age 13 & 15 and they are now planning to become airline pilots. The older one is 'flying the GLEIM' private pilot course and has been flying so the purchase of the Sentry plus, the iPad mini and the Foreflight subscription will allow them to use them both in the air and in their flight simulator they are building (not the Sentry on the ground, but in their training with their instructor), Great job and thanks.

@JustaPilot1 Месяц назад

Two things. There is a middle Sentry between the mini and Sentry Plus, just called the Sentry. It also has Co detection. The other thing is you didn't mention the nationwide ADS-B ground stations that repeat aircraft data from ATC. Its pretty much real time. That data includes aircraft without ADS-B but has Mode C transponder. Of course, the transponder has to be turned on.

@hackerzol 9 месяцев назад

"Every aircraft that is flying in the United States has to have an ADS-B out transmitter". That's not true, there are exceptions.

@PilotDevin 8 месяцев назад

You are correct. There are exceptions

@karsonjones4792 Год назад

I’m only 3 weeks out from school now can’t wait man

Glad you enjoyed it!

Amazing point to how amazing it is and people go to the sheep with out kneeing

@threemuletom Год назад

Which iPad mini do you recommend? 64 or 256 gb?

@traviswcarney Год назад

I'd go with the bigger one. ForeFlight takes up a lot of space, depending on how much map data you have downloaded. Nothing worse than not having enough room to get your updates. When there's a new chart update cycle, the required size effectively doubles because there's a period of time where you'll have the old data that hasn't expired yet and the new data that hasn't gone into effect yet, so you have two copies of everything downloaded.

Wait, is this the voice behind the ACS Library channel?

@BuildTimeMC 4 месяца назад

I want a comparison with this and Garmin Pilot

@rangelaereo1162 9 месяцев назад

Have a question, sentry have a subscription annual?? Or only buy and work?? Thanks!

@DogPuke99 Год назад

While at Mauna Loa, did you have enough spare time to work part time?

@PilotDevin Год назад

@GreenBlueWalkthrough 3 месяца назад

I mean for a flight ssubsciption it's not to bad but for it's feature set it kinda is... Myradar give you aircraft charts, real time weather and MOTARs for $25 a year and Germin FLTplan go is free which the same info a Forflight with out the addons. So yeah Foreflight byy no means is a monopoly which if it was it would be trust busted. Edit: Okj so FLTplan is separate from Garmin and garim has it's own $110 a year thing that some pilots preferover Fore flight for it's UI and garmin connectivity... Oh and all of these but My radar connect to the boxs.

@johncarr123 10 месяцев назад

Carmen pilot it’s pretty good too

@flyashish 3 месяца назад

does the adsb in sentry device provide gps location? lets say I have a non cellular IPad because I know the cellular ones come with a gps reciever built in which forelight uses to give your location but if you have a non cellular ipad like me, would the foreflight sentry device provide gps location to my ipad as well as all the other features and properly work on the non cellular ipad?

@JustaPilot1 Месяц назад

Yes. I get 1 meter resolution with Sentry and Foreflight. Just about all ADS-B/GPS receivers will do the same.

@henryvinson1 Год назад

excellent!

@PilotDevin Год назад

Thank you! Cheers!

@Group-Five-Industries Год назад

Great info!

@epi_adikt Год назад

Does the Sentry require a subscription?

@PilotDevin Год назад

No! You have to have the foreflight app subscription but the sentry connects to it for free!

@PeterDavila-mx9ni Год назад

Great review, thank you. I wish Foreflight would support android tablets. I own a very capable Samsung S8 Ultra tablet with 512 Kb of memory. It's kind of painful to be forced to buy an iPad tablet as well before switching to Foreflight.

@nickmyatt 11 месяцев назад

Sure wish foreflight worked on Android. Only reason I don't use it. ;-(

@tangocharlie9291 11 месяцев назад

Heck, I won’t fly MSFS without ForeFlight.

@stephen5147 Год назад

EVERY aircraft flying in the US must have ADS-B Out?

Your opinion on fore flight v’s Sky demon

@flexairz 4 месяца назад

Foreflight anytime. FF is professional, SD is for the weekend VFR pilot.

@MaydayMishap Год назад

Doesn't Garmin have all 3 of the first things you just said? Why not just get a Aera 760 and be done with it? I don't really get the whole tablet thing. Why would I want a screen as big as a laptop without even half the power? And then everything else can be accomplished by phone. So you're only buying an iPad for foreflight? Just buy an aviation-made tablet. Especially if you're making a career out of it.

@MaydayMishap Год назад

Also, would an iPad survive a crash better than the Aera? I don't think it has a chance. If an unfortunate event happens I want a device that might actually get me out of it. Just saying I have seen Ipads break falling 3 feet onto the carpet.

@5stardave 4 месяца назад

If it was available for Android, yes. Until then, no thanks!

@MaydayMishap Год назад

I personally would never use Foreflight during a flight, just googling iPad catches fire on a plane will show you why. This is why I suggest the Garmin tools because they are not known for blowing up on airplanes. While flying I would put them in a thermal bag and only use them in emergency situations. I would much rather get lost from a bad GPS than be in a cockpit on fire that I cannot do anything about, especially with oxygen being rapidly burned away.
