About this app

** 30 Day Free Trial! **

Garmin Pilot is a comprehensive aviation application that allows pilots to plan, file, fly and log with ease.

Garmin Pilot is the most comprehensive suite of tools for Android designed specifically for general aviation and corporate pilots. Flight planning, filing, charts, interactive maps, weather briefing resources and navigation capabilities; it’s all included. The app’s intuitive interface mirrors those on the newest Garmin touchscreen avionics so you can go seamlessly from preflight to inflight. Plan, file, fly with Garmin Pilot.

Plan

Garmin Pilot’s powerful capabilities start with pre-flight planning, providing pilots with the most comprehensive aviation weather information to make better-informed flight decisions. Pilots can check NEXRAD radar, visible and infrared cloud imagery, METARs, TAFs, AIRMETs, SIGMETs, PIREPs, NOTAMs, winds and temperature aloft, PIREPs, TFRs and lightning data. With Garmin Pilot, data can be displayed over a VFR sectional or an IFR low or high en-route chart to visualize the weather for your route. Add text-based weather widgets and use the exclusive NavTrack feature to view weather along the planned route.

File

With Garmin Pilot, users can easily enter a flight plan. Pre-loaded forms make it quick to save and reuse data for frequently flown routes. And when the flight plan is ready, Garmin Pilot makes it simple to file, cancel or close the flight plan.

Fly

Garmin Pilot provides full en-route navigation capability on its moving map, while showing ETE, ETA, cross track error, distance to waypoint and current position.

Log

Garmin Pilot includes a comprehensive electronic logbook that syncs with flyGarmin. The logbook automatically generates entries based upon GPS data collected during the flight, tracks currency, supports manual entries, endorsements and creates reports.

Garmin Pilot. It’s the app aviators have been waiting for.

Features include:
- Charts: VFR Sectionals, low and high IFR en-route, airport diagrams and approach procedures
- Optional geo-reference Garmin FliteCharts® and Garmin SafeTaxi® show aircraft position on approach charts and taxiways
- Weather Maps: Animated radar, AIRMETs/SIGMETs, Lightning, PIREPs, METARs/TAFs, Winds Aloft, TFRs, Infrared and Visible Satellite
- Extensive text products: METARs, TAFs, Winds Aloft, PIREPs, AIRMETs, SIGMETs, Area Forecasts and NOTAMs
- Dynamic weather overlays with your route displayed on map
- AOPA Airport Directory
- Flight plan filing via Lockheed Martin and DUATS
- Comprehensive weather data direct from the National Weather Service and Environment Canada

Despite some issues with slow start-ups and occasional crashes, the app mostly worked fine for me for the last 10 years. But since the update about a month ago it takes extremely long time - 30+ minutes - to acquire GPS location from the internal GPS (Samsung Galaxy Tab S3) even when stationary. Even after Google Maps and other apps already show my precise location, Garmin Pilot still says "searching for satellites". Most recent January update 8.4.3 didn't fix the problem.

App has issues picking up traffic, getting basic airport information like taxi diagrams among other things. Unfortunately I'm locked in for a year or I would get foreflight. Overall this app has been a major let down. It's behind the curve in a lot of ways which is disappointing because I love garmin products.

Great on IPad, weak on Android. No Stratus/Stratux support (in FLT Wx, Traffic), Glide Range circle, Terrain, Safe Taxi, Open Street Maps.... I'm sure there is more missing, not much here better than the Ipad and much that is worse. Dissapointed but still usable for nav on the Android platform. Keep hoping the fairly numerous updates will fix one or more of these, but they address anything but, less needed stuff.
