FAQ

Does FlyQ Pocket work with iOS 10?

Yup!

What's the difference between FlyQ Pocket and FlyQ EFB?

FlyQ EFB is a full-blown, top-rated aviation app with all the bells and whistles including VFR and IFR charts, geo-referecned approach plates and airport diagrams, airport info, weather, and flight planning. It has an annual fee of $69 for VFR data or $139 for IFR and VFR data. FlyQ Pocket includes airport info, weather, and flight planning but no maps, approach plates, or airport diagrams. It's also 100% free.

Does FlyQ Pocket support Lockheed Martin Flight Services?

Yup. Use either Lockheed (Leidos) or DUATS. Choose your provider by changing your pilot profile in Settings then Pilots.

Android version? iPhone version?

You bet! Pick either system and we've got a FlyQ for you. Download the iPhone version from the Apple App Store from your iPhone. Download the Android version via Google Play.

I'm a Canadian pilot so can't use DUAT. What do I do?

We don't have a lot of Canadian data in the product but, if you fly in the US, there is a workaround. Simply select 'Lockheed Martin' as your weather provider.

My aircraft isn't in the list

Sorry about that. If you send an email to Seattle Avionics Technical Support with the manufacturer, model, and FAA/ICAO TYPE identifier (like a Cessna 172 is TYPE C172), we'll try to add it for the next release.

In the meantime you can select Experimental as the Manufacturer then pick High, Medium, or Low Performance as the Model. Not ideal but it gives ATC what they need.

How do I delete flight plans?

From the list of flight plans, tap the Edit button at the top of the screen then tap the - button next to the flight plan you wish to delete and confirm by tapping the Delete button.

Alternately, once you open the flight plan (that is, see the NavLog), tap the button that looks like a box with an arrow coming out of it (Apple calls this an Action button). Delete is the first choice but you can also use this to print or email the flight plan.

How is this different than AOPA Go?

FlyQ Pocket works seamlessly with FlyQ EFB on the iPad and our new ATLAS Web-based aviation information / flight planning system. AOPA Go does not share any data outside of AOPA apps and services.

How do I add aircraft and pilot info so I can plan a flight?

Tap the Plans tab on the bottom of the screen.

I have a Seattle Avionics Voyager account but it doesn't seem to work here

Thanks for being a Seattle Avionics customer; We really appreciate it.

Voyager for Windows includes a feature called WebSynch that takes all your flight plans, aircraft profiles, your pilot profile, etc. and stores them in the cloud. This is what FlyQ Pocket uses, not just a normal Voyager subscription. We understand that this can be a little confusing. This WebSynch system allows you to transfer flight plans betwen the iPhone and your PC.

To resolve, just open Voyager for Windows and select WebSynch from the File menu to create the WebSynch account (free, of course). This put all your flight information in the cloud for AOPA FlyQ to see and use.

Then use those credentials in FlyQ Pocket (in the Settings tab) and you'll be good to go. Or you can just create a new account.

Are there any known bugs in the app?

Nothing significant, no. The most recent release fixed all the bugs we know about. That said, if you think you found a problem, have a question, or have a suggestion, please let us know by sending email to FlyQSupport@seattleavionics.com.

How about countries other than the United States?

We're sorry but FlyQ Pocket is really just for flying within the United States; it has no data for other countries.

I have other questions. Who do I contact?
