Description

fDeck turns your iPhone or iPad into a working aircraft instrument panel - a graphically beautiful flight deck for your pocket, with live weather, real ADS-B traffic, a flight planner and a powerful radio-navigation trainer.

Trusted by 50,000+ pilots, student pilots and flight-sim enthusiasts worldwide. 100% ad-free.

A FULL PANEL OF INSTRUMENTS
Every instrument is hand-crafted to look and behave like the real thing - responsive, animated, and controlled with intuitive touch. Mix and match any combination to build your own flight deck:

• Synthetic Vision (Vision PFD)
• Horizontal Situation Indicator (HSI)
• VOR receiver
• Automatic Direction Finder (ADF)
• Artificial Horizon
• Altimeter (GPS/Baro)
• Vertical Speed Indicator (VSI)
• Aircraft compass with heading bug
• Groundspeed indicator
• Chronometer with fuel totaliser
• Live weather & wind, with TAF/METAR in raw or decoded form

Every instrument has its own built-in video tutorial.

LEARN TO NAVIGATE
Pan your aircraft anywhere on the map and watch every instrument respond in real time. Tune any VOR, NDB or radio aid from a worldwide database - or build your own virtual navaids to practise tracking radials, intercepts and holds. The best radio-navigation trainer you can carry.

PLAN YOUR FLIGHT
Build a flight plan and slave any instrument to it. Waypoints transition automatically as you fly, so every needle keeps pointing exactly where it should - no re-tuning between legs.

FLY WITH CONFIDENCE
• Worldwide aviation database: 20,000+ airports and navaids, updated monthly
• Aviation moving map with airspace, airports and navaids
• Optional 5/10/20NM range rings and enhanced radial lines
• Live ADS-B traffic with a built-in traffic avoidance (TCAS) system
• Tag your own aircraft registration to silence alerts on yourself
• Export your tracks as GPX or KML

FOR YOUR HOME COCKPIT
Drive the instruments straight from X-Plane or Microsoft Flight Simulator via the flight simulation connection, and turn any device into a secondary instrument panel.
