If you are new to ForeFlight or just want a review, these two ForeFlight VFR Flight Planning webinars are for you.
In ForeFlight VFR Flight Planning 101 and 201 we will assume that you already know how to plan a flight using “old school” flight planning techniques such as paper charts and flight logs or other EFBs. MIke Jesch will cover:
- The basics of designing a VFR flight route using ForeFlight.
- How to analyze that route and demonstrate methods to identify various issues such as airspace, terrain, and weather, and make appropriate adjustments to the route .
- How to use the route, altitude, and alternate advisor features.
- And much more
ForeFlight Flight Planning 101 will present the basics of designing a VFR flight route Using ForeFlight. ForeFlight Flight Planning 201 will build upon Planning 101 to show advanced features, tips and tricks to analyze your VFR flight route. Note: Planning 101 is not a pre-requisite for Planning 102, although attendance at both is highly recommended, or viewing the recording for Planning 101 before attending Planning 201.
Additional ForeFlight webinars will discuss how to file flight plans, obtain weather briefings, add procedures to your flight plans, and use other ForeFlight tools.
