New Patent-Pending Analytic Solution Added to Popular Holding Pattern App Reducing Pilot Workload
We excited to announce version 2.0 of our popular Holding Pattern Computer, now with a patent-pending analytic solution that for the first time, calculates everything a Pilot will need to roll out precisely onto the inbound leg and fly it for exactly the prescribed time or distance, regardless of wind direction or speed.
Aviation Mobile Apps was selected as the $20,000 Grand Challenge Winner for the Position Reporting app.
New app helps IFR pilots calculate holding patterns
It’s fair to say that instrument pilots are most confident with holding procedures on the day of their instrument rating checkride, and the knowledge and skills slowly fade over time as unexpected holding is rarely required during normal IFR flying. Sure, many RNAV instrument approaches are now using holding patterns as the primary method for course reversal, but there isn’t much for the pilot to think about since the GPS does all the work.
How To Use Holding Pattern Computer Now On Prezi
This short Prezi presentation will highlight the steps in calculating a holding pattern.
Prezi is a visual storytelling software alternative to traditional slide-based presentation formats. Prezi presentations feature a map-like, schematic overview that lets users pan between topics at will, zoom in on desired details, and pull back to reveal context.
With an app from METARs.com, you will always know when it is good to fly!
Used by pilots in their pre-flight briefing, a METAR report contains pertinent information including winds, visibility, clouds, temperature and other observed weather conditions useful for flight planning.
METARs.com collects weather reports from a worldwide network of aviation weather stations and color codes them to the appropriate flight category and displays them in a calendar-style format, helping you to see trends at a glance.
