As more users look for alternatives for flight planning and cockpit tablet navigation apps, a program called 8Flight Aviator EFB has been getting a lot of attention for its competitive and fast-growing feature list, plus its reasonable subscription price that’s lower than some of the leading programs.
It started as a trip planning program but is quickly growing into a full-featured flight planning and navigational app with a smart weather planning utility, shallow menu structure, and exceptional mapping resolution and quality. But as 8Flight EFB founder Matt Guthmiller explains in this episode of the Smart Aviator podcast on AvBrief, creating a full-featured EFB app from the ground up—with the features that demanding pilots expect—is no easy task.
Look for a full report of 8Flight Aviator EFB in an upcoming Smart Aviator Feature on AvBrief.
Something alternative to Foreflight if the new Foreflight owner raises price higher than now.
iOS only? Is there a plan for an Android version in the future?
It may convince people to leave ForeFlight, but you’ll never convince people to leave FltPlanGo.
Because of Android non-support I am stuck with other options (Garmin pilot right now – which have its own bugs)
Seriously, try FltPlanGo. Can’t beat it for the price. Costs nothing to try.
