What’s new
Version 1.8.5 · Updated October 15, 2026
Customize the flight info bar for how you fly. Tap any slot to choose the data you want, pick from grouped field menus, and use +/− to show 1 to 6 slots. See more airspace without cluttering the map. Restricted and prohibited areas, plus MOAs, alerts, and warnings, are now separate layers under Airspace & Notices. Class B and C outer outlines appear at mid zoom so you can see the big picture. Edit a saved aircraft from Flight Setup instead of adding a new one. If aircraft or pilot data does not sync, you will see that on the setup screen. Tap overlapping airspace to highlight the selected area and get a clearer callout.
