Bringing glass cockpit functionality to your PDA and GPS. CoPilotMap aviation software is an Electronic Flight Bag (EFB) providing moving map, flight planning, checklists, timers, HSI, EFIS, approach plates, VFR and IFR charts, and more to the general aviation pilot.

 

 


Moving Map Moving Map: ( USA DATA ONLY )

  • North-Up, Track-Up views
  • Zoom in/out, panning
  • Runway extended center lines
  • Compass Rose
  • Public & Military Airports
  • Private Airports (Premium Only)
  • Navaids and Fixes
  • Airways(low altitude en-route)
  • B,C,D Airspaces
  • Restricted, Alert, MOA Areas
  • Obstacles (Premium Only)


Terrain Warnings Relative Terrain Warnings (Premium Only)

Avoid terrain by setting the map options to have terrain with elevations close to and greater than your current elevation depicted in yellow and red on the moving map.


New Features in File Explrorer EFIS : (Premium Only)

Have a gps driven attitude indicator(AI) to help recognize when your plane's AI has failed.

  • Compass, ground speed, and altitude displays help with situational awareness
  • Waypoint Id, bearing, and distance reduces the chances of being distracted with your nav equipment while flying partial panel
Important Note: This EFIS is gps based and its artificial horizon will lag the aircraft's AI indicator. As such, it is not safe to use as the primary means of attitude control. This screen is provided to assist pilots in recognizing an AI failure and to confirm the pilot's interpretation of a partial panel.


HSI Advanced HSI : (Premium Only)

Not only do you get a HSI display, but also included is:

  • Glidescope graph intuatively shows both distance and descent progress to the runway touchdown point
  • A standard RMI type indicator (right) shows glidescope deviance
  • A VSI bar (left) showing current VSI, average VSI, and required VSI to reach the touchdown point
  • A wealth of numeric indicators fill in the missing pieces

Dashboard Dashboard

For those who prefer to have useful information easily readable at a glance

  • Current status information on the top part of screen(speed, altitude, track, vsi, and flight time.
  • Waypoint Information on the bottom half of the screen (id, bearing, ete, dist, cross-track-error, required vsi)
  • Turn arrows reduce the mental calculations required to determine direction to turn to get back on course
  • Mini AI shows bank,pitch status

Runway Approach Runway Approach Screen: (Premium Only)

Monitor your runway approach.

  • Moving map display with extended runway center line helps with situational awareness
  • RMI indicator helps you fine tune your alignment
  • Large glidescope graph shows progress, both vertically and horizontally, to the runway
  • Displays required VSI to reach touchdown point

InFlight Use Designed For InFlight Use:

The only PocketPC EFB that is designed around inflight use, rather than it being an afterthought. No need for a stylus. All actions can be done using your finger tips.

  • Tabbed interface for quick navigation between views
  • Popup Menu saves valuable screen space
  • Oversized screen widgets(labels, buttons, text entry boxes, etc)
  • Popup oversized keyboards for easy data entry while the pda is attached to yolk mount

E6B E6B (Premium Only)

Since the flight planner accounts for winds-aloft variables when calculating ETE and fuel, the need for many E6B functions are eliminated. CoPilotMap provides:

  • Crosswind/Headwind
  • Weight & Balance
  • Density Altitude

Charts Weather Charts: (Premium Only)

If your PDA has connectivity with the internet( via cellphone, activesync, or wifi), you can view NOAA Weather Charts and NexRad images

Charts Include:

  • National NexRad
  • National VFR/MVFR/IFR airport status
  • National Airmets(Turbulence,Icing,All)
  • National Prognostic(12hr,24hr,36hr)
  • National Winds Aloft(Current,6hr,12hr at 6,00ft,9,000ft,12,000ft)

Flight Planner Flight Planner:

  • Unlimited number of routes and waypoints per route
  • Search for airports by id, name, or city
  • Reorder and reverse waypoints
  • Winds and fuel burn rate is factored into results

Check Lists Check Lists and Reference Info: (Premium Only)

CoPilotMap offers a sample checklist that can be easily edited to meet your needs
using any text editor. Using a standard text editor is far easier and faster than using checklist edit screens.

  • Catagories for normal, emergency, performance tables, and reference information
  • Large text size makes easy to read

 

 


Nearest Nearest Waypoints:

Mapped to one of the PDA hardkeys, you can quicky pull up the nearest waypoints to you:

  • Separate lists for Airports, VORs, Fixes, and User Waypoints
  • Tapping on an entry will create a direct-to route and active it.
