SocialFlight mobile app adds multimedia content from Jeppesen and other leading aviation companies
SocialFlight, the aviation industry’s leading web and mobile app for finding events and interesting places to fly, is now the go-to source for free aviation educational multimedia with the introduction of SocialFlight University.
SocialFlight University is an easy to navigate collection of videos, webinars and reference materials on a variety of educational topics from Pilot Training, Safety and Technique, to Aircraft Ownership, Operations and Maintenance. It also includes materials on Aircraft, Avionics and Pilot Products, as well as Clubs and Community-related topics. The entire collection is available for viewing on most phones and tablets, as well as on the web.
SocialFlight University is an integral part of the popular, SocialFlight app, and is a free resource for the General Aviation community through the support of aviation industry leaders including Jeppesen, Champion Aerospace, Continental Motors, Aspen Avionics, FreeFlight Systems, Piper Aircraft, Sennheiser, Avidyne, Lightspeed Aviation and ASL CamGuard.
For example, Jeppesen provided educational videos on proper aviation chart usage. “Safety and education are at the core of everything we do at Jeppesen.” said Reggie Arsenault, director, Jeppesen General Aviation Client Management. “SocialFlight now combines the recreational aspect of flying with the education required to do it safely. Jeppesen is proud to support SocialFlight University as the centralized, mobile library of free educational materials for all pilots.”
SocialFlight is the mobile app and web suite used by tens of thousands of pilots to help them find Aircraft Fly-in’s, Air Shows, Pancake Breakfasts, Conventions, FAA Safety Seminars and much more; over 20,000 events catalogued to date. It also includes over 300,000 POI’s, such as restaurants, attractions, lodging and more; all within walking distance of airports.
“The SocialFlight community has grown to the point where our features are driven by the needs of the General Aviation community.” said Jeff Simon, President of SocialFlight. “Our live webinars have been extremely popular and the need for ‘on-demand’ access to this great content was the impetus for the creation of SocialFlight University. With well over 100 videos and webinars, there’s truly something for everyone.” Upcoming live webinars include ADS-B training from FreeFlight Systems and avionics training Avidyne.
Some of the recorded webinars will qualify for continuing education credits, such as the FAA’s Wings Program, from the companies delivering the content. As the app and content continues to grow, an increasing emphasis will be placed on how pilots and mechanics alike can use SocialFlight University as a resource for their continuing education needs.
SocialFlight University is included in the 4.2 release of the free SocialFlight mobile app for Apple and Android devices, as well as on the web. SocialFlight 4.2 also includes a variety of other improvements and new features, including the ability to use the app in Landscape mode on tablets.
