iPhone Software for the Pilot

 

CFI Tools is a collection of software built by a CFI for his own use.

This collection contains a number of simple demonstrations of complex topics that are part of the Private, Instrument and Commercial pilot syllabus. It also contains some practical tools that can be used in your daily flying.

The training tools include the Crosswind Calculator, Holds Calculator and the VOR Demonstrator. The practical tools are used to calculate Weight & Balance, calculate Takeoff & Landing distance and to record and playback Flight Tracks.

Mvx Tracks

Takeoff & Landing Distance

 

Calculate the Takeoff & Landing Distances for 9 popular GA aircraft

I built these for my own use and I update them based on this use and on ideas from other pilots who use them.

The Weight & Balance and Takeoff & Landing calculations are practical tools you can use every day.

The flight track tool is fun, and it is useful, especially for showing a student exactly the maneuvers we just flew.

The flight track is also helpful when we finish a busy lesson and try to remember “how many times did we go around the pattern?”.

Enjoy.
