Weather in 3D Preview

• View interactive Icing and Turbulence forecasts as you play through your planned route in 3D.
• Enable U.S. or Global Icing and Turbulence layers using the new layer selector in 3D Preview to display forecast weather along your route, and use the altitude slider on the right to view weather at different altitudes.
• Tap the RTE button at the top of the altitude slider to only show weather at the same altitude as your route.
• 3D View depicts forecast weather as floating colored blocks that use the same color scale to represent forecast severity as the overhead map and Profile View.
• 3D View’s information panel in the top-left also indicates the forecast severity level at your current location and altitude, and adds a clock to indicate the estimated passing time at that location.
• Like Profile View, 3D Preview combines multiple forecast periods to always show the actual forecast at every point along your route based on passing times.
• Additionally, you can now show or hide the list of waypoints in 3D Preview by tapping the Route button in the top-right.
• Weather in 3D Preview is included in ForeFlight Premium and Business Performance plans.

Visual Approaches with TPA

• Specify the pattern altitude for a new visual approach or traffic pattern entry in Procedure Advisor to add a prominent waypoint with the TPA in your route.
• Access visual approaches in Procedure Advisor’s Traffic Pattern or Approaches menu.
• Enter a custom traffic pattern altitude in either MSL or AGL formats, or tap the Select button to choose from a list of recommended pattern altitudes.
• Select the type of traffic pattern entry or a straight in approach and tap Add to Route to insert the pattern entry with marked TPA waypoint into your route.
• Tap the pattern entry in the FPL Bubble Editor and tap Set Pattern Altitude to change the selected altitude and update the TPA waypoint.

Internet Traffic Search

• Find active Internet Traffic targets anywhere in the world by typing a tail number or call sign into the Search bar.
• You must have an internet connection and be on the ground to search for Internet Traffic. Searching for aircraft while connected to an ADS-B In receiver will only show traffic targets received by that device.
• ForeFlight displays matches for partial and complete search terms under an “Internet Traffic” header in the Search results list.
• Tap on any traffic result to reposition the map and highlight the aircraft, which will also enable the Traffic layer if it isn’t already.

FBO Detail View Enhancements

• The FBO detail view now displays self- and full-service fuel prices for both 100LL and Jet-A or Jet-A+ in a more compact table.
• Information about contract Jet-A pricing via your JetFuelX fuel cards is also now available above the retail fuel prices at the top of the Information tab, rather than in a separate tab. Integrating your JetFuelX fuel cards into ForeFlight is available with ForeFlight Premium plans.
