Re: Notams in iFly

Guys, sorry this is taking so long. It's still on the TODO list. The project was delayed for various internal reasons, but I will reset the priority for this feature. We have a couple of silly gaps like this, I'd like to get them filled.

Thanks,

Walter

Re: Notams in iFly

Walter, now that the real plan is in place, Would it be possible to get NOTAMS.

You do realize NOTAMS are required, in pre flight planning. It would be nice to bring up the airport info and in more info, be abke to see NOTAMS.

Foreflight and FltPlanGo do a great job of doing this.

Re: Notams in iFly

I too would like to be able to easily see the Notams for any airport I click on but there is a way to get Notams in iFly.

Enter a flight plan from airport A to airport B, select Online Filing, (don't worry this doesn't submit your flight plan), click on Options, click on View Briefing, browse all the Notams, sigmets, surface observations, etc... that are pertinent to your plan. Close briefing then close the form. You don't actually have to file the flight plan when using the Online Filing option. I've commented previously that this isn't very intuitive and that the button should start with Online Briefing, then have the button for Online Filing.

I think iFly GPS is far superior to any other app, although not perfect. I guess this request has not risen to the top of the list of improvements they have done and are doing every day. There are other simple ways to get notams.

Like ForeFlight, and FltPlanGo, why not be able to get the information in one place. I like to do my flight planning on IFly, I can get the METARS andTAF's, Winds aloft, airport information, Frequencies,,,,,,,,,,,,, So why not get NOTAMS here also.
