Transition to ForeFlight Mobile
Since the Boeing acquisition of ForeFlight, the Jeppesen and ForeFlight teams continue to build innovative solutions that increase flying safety, efficiency and enjoyment. Moving forward, the Jeppesen Mobile FliteDeck VFR application will be replaced with ForeFlight Mobile.
ForeFlight Mobile offers a powerful combination of features for VFR flying in Europe, including integrated flight planning and filing, interactive weather, data-driven aeronautical maps, state-of-the-art hazard awareness features, document management, avionics connectivity, and so much more.

Graphical NOTAMs
Access graphical depictions of enroute NOTAMs directly on ForeFlight’s map for most of Europe and Turkey. NOTAMs are color-coded based on type and relative severity, and are automatically downloaded when you Pack before a flight.
General Aviation Forecasts (GAFOR)
European subscribers can now access a map layer that displays each day’s GAFOR forecast for France, Germany, Switzerland, Austria, Slovenia, and Croatia. Each GAFOR Region and Route shows up to three forecast periods, with tappable color-coded icons that provide at-a-glance information about each forecast.
