Jeppesen Mobile FliteDeck Connects Mobile Devices with Panel Mount Avionics through Aspen Avionics Connected Panel
Mobile FliteDeck streamlines pilot work flow and improves access to information during all phases of flight
Englewood, Colo. | 07 Jan 2013 | By Jeppesen
Jeppesen, a part of Boeing Commercial Aviation Services, now offers route planning capabilities that can be transferred between mobile devices and installed avionics to improve data access for general aviation pilots. The new route planning solution synchronizes smart-enabled devices with certified panel-mount avionics through the Aspen Avionics Connected Panel communication network. Jeppesen route planning data created with Jeppesen Mobile FliteDeck on iPad is then transmitted for review through Aspen Avionics MFD 500 or 1000 units.
The route plan transfer process also works beginning with route planning data transmitted through the Aspen Avionics Connected Panel network to Jeppesen Mobile FliteDeck on iPad. GPS-based own-ship position data can also be transferred through the Aspen Avionics gateway to Jeppesen Mobile FliteDeck on iPad to show positioning on Jeppesen airport diagrams and enroute charts.
“We introduce Jeppesen Mobile FliteDeck route planning functionality as an enabled app for the Aspen Avionics Connected Panel gateway to help enhance the connection between data and devices during all phases of the flight process,” said Scott Reagan, director, Jeppesen OEM Client Management. “Jeppesen route planning data available through the Connected Panel network will help pilots access the right information at the right time through their preferred delivery platform.”
A “rubber-banding” feature of Jeppesen Mobile FliteDeck also allows pilots to easily amend route plans on the iPad touch screen and transmit the revised data through the Connected Panel gateway.
Jeppesen Mobile FliteDeck features true, data-driven and interactive digital enroute navigation information and worldwide geo-referenced terminal charts. Jeppesen Mobile FliteDeck is optimized for all phases of flight and includes own-ship position and route overlay as well as the ability to view a complete library of terminal charts, airport diagrams and Jeppesen Airway Manual text information.
Jeppesen Mobile FliteDeck streamlines flight preparation, simplifies complex processes, eliminates labor associated with paper revisions and reduces clutter in the cockpit. Fast rendering capabilities and opening and download speeds as well as low storage space requirements help to drive efficiency for pilots.
Jeppesen Mobile FliteDeck for consumer use is available for download at no additional charge for Jeppesen digital data subscribers through the App Store on iPad or at www.itunes.com/appstore/. To use the app, customers need a JeppView or Express JeppView subscription.
