Stay Alert on the Ground
& in the Air
ForeFlight puts your safety at the forefront by providing audio and visual alerts that give you better situational awareness on the ground and in the air. You can manage all alerts in the app settings menu.
RUNWAY PROXIMITY ADVISOR
Receive visual and auditory warnings when you approach and enter a runway. Upon entering the runway, you will also hear the length remaining in hundreds of feet. This is a helpful cross-check to ensure you are departing from the correct runway.
500' AGL Alert
This alert lets you know when you have descended through 500’ AGL. Stay aware of your altitude while keeping your eyes outside the aircraft during final approach.
TFR Alerts
TFR Alerts warn you when you are approaching or have entered TFR airspace. Alerts are shown (and heard) whether you have the TFR map layer on or off.
Sink Rate Alert
In an emergency situation, the Sink Rate Alert warns you of an excessive descent rate.
Steer Clear Of TFRs
No more plotting by hand. ForeFlight displays both active and upcoming TFR data in a graphical format right on the map. Future TFRs are yellow, active or soon-to-be active TFRs are red. Tap on a TFR to view the full FAA text.
STADIUM TFRS
Figuring out when and where Stadium TFRs are active can be a pain. ForeFlight continuously monitors event schedules for Major League Baseball, the National Football League, NCAA Football, Indy Car, NASCAR Sprint Cup, and Formula 1 and integrates that information into the TFR map layer.
Fuel
Easily see the best fuel prices in an area or along a route by toggling on the Fuel map layer. Prices for 100LL and Jet A are plotted on the map and color coded based on affordability for the area.
