Learn MoreAvPlan EFB 5.2 is now available from the Apple App Store as a free update for all users. We have made significant performance improvements across the board. Users with Retina devices will really notice the greater mapping speed.
We’ve made significant improvements to our live weather radar overlay (see below). The IR satellite overlay is more frequently updated – now once per hour. AvPlan EFB’s weather options are unrivalled anywhere, and we’ve got some really useful additions in the pipeline.
In addition we have added some new weather overlays;
Both of these overlays are updated every 6 hours and are valid up to 72 hours in the future. With winter well underway in New Zealand and the southern states of Australia, the new freezing level visualisation is an incredibly useful addition.
Pro users will also notice that the super-zoom function on the Mega charts is also improved – you now don’t need the charts downloaded for the airport diagrams to appear. We’ve also increased the resolution of the terrain information so our patented glide calculator and glide envelope display are more accurate in areas of high terrain.
AvPlan EFB 5.2 now includes support for the iLevil 2 SW. In Australia we support the GPS and ADSB-IN functions. With the iLevil connected to your iPad (via Wifi) the iPad will receive ADSB traffic information and use the iLevil as a GPS source.
To celebrate 5AVN getting their new F model Chinooks, we have added a Chinook icon to AvPlan EFB. Just for fun we have also added a Paul Bennet Airshows Wolf Pitts as well (and its inverted when looking at the flight profile view).
