WEATHER
 

FlyQ EFB keeps you safer as it makes the weather easier to interpret. FlyQ Online adds even more powerful weather planning. 

  • Begin your preflight at your PC or Mac using FlyQ Online. It has unique  time-based weather and even more weather layers than FlyQ EFB. 

  • Watch real-time Weather in the cockpit to avoid potential threats with 4D modeling and predictive NexRad radar. 

  • The Weather Gallery has hundreds of current and prognostic weather graphics from the U.S. and Canada. 

  • Use the Left and Right arrows to see weather graphics from adjacent altitudes or time periods. 

  • Use the Search tab to get a weather info by: City, common place names like Disneyland, zip codes, states/countries, even addresses. 

  • Wind arrows are based on your current altitude and what NOAA predicted for the current time. 

  • Use a split-screen and two maps to show weather from far away on one, and nearby aviation objects on the other. 

  • Use the Weather tab to check the weather around your current position.  Information updates dynamically as you fly to adapt to new locations and the new time. 

  • Tap to enlarge METARs, TAFs and radar graphics, or to see a 7-day forecast instead of the current temperature.  

  • Unique, patent-pending Wind Optimizer gives a quick graphical indication of the tailwind or headwind you'd expect if you change altitude. Green is a tailwind and red is a headwind. 

  • Weather comes from either the Internet or an ADS-B receiver such as the Stratux, Stratus, Clarity, Dual XGPS 170/190, iLevil,  others. 

  • Tap the Layers icon to overlay any of 16 weather layers. 

  • Use and view as many or as few weather layers as you like. There are no limitations. 

  • The METAR/TAF layer in  FlyQ EFB uses colored circles to depict conditions with the best data available: a METAR (if the METAR is less than an hour old) or a TAF (if looking further into the future).  Green is VFR, yellow is Marginal VFR, and red is IFR, LIFR, or VLIFR. 

  • Winds Aloft arrows point to the direction where the wind is going. Numbers plainly give the speed in knots, not counting barbs and using Roman numeral math.
