On board

The basics, done properly

FlightDeck EFB carries the tools most apps overlook. Built to be used in the cockpit in turbulence.

Checklists

Digital checklists with big touch targets and clear section navigation. Start from templates for the Cessna 172, Cessna 182, Piper PA-28 and Vans RV-10, have items read aloud with Announce Checklist Items, and share checklists with other pilots by ShareCode or .fdcl file.

Notepad

A scratchpad for clearances, ATIS and frequencies. Works with Apple Pencil and reusable PDF templates.

Flights

Log each flight as it happens: times, aircraft, route and engine readings, ready for the paperwork later.

Weather

METARs and TAFs for stations worldwide. Search, use your location, or keep favourites one tap away.

Traffic

A radar-style traffic display fed by GDL90-compatible ADS-B receivers, with your own track, altitude and ground speed.

Reminders

Licence expiries, medicals and maintenance dates. Set once, reminded in time.

Documents

Manuals, plates and paperwork stored on the device, organised in folders, readable offline.

Community

News and discussion from the FlightDeck community, plus the Discord where the next features take shape.

MFD mode

On iPad, a dual-pane layout puts two tools side by side. Dock it left or right.

Multi-tasking

FlightDeck EFB runs happily in Split View alongside SkyDemon, ForeFlight and the rest of your flight bag.

Also on board: Apple Watch app · FlightDeck Labs experimental features

Checklist Editor

Build checklists in the browser

Write and organise .fdcl checklists on a full keyboard, then load them in FlightDeck EFB or share them with a ShareCode.

Principles

Deliberately simple

FlightDeck EFB does not try to replace your full flight bag. It focuses on delivering a smaller set of tools and does them well.

The basic features (Checklists, Notepad, weather, traffic, documents, reminders & flight logs) are free for every pilot, and will stay that way. The app is flown in everything from paragliders to 737s, and the community drives what gets built next.

Our customers are not our product. We collect no data we don't need, sell nothing, show no adverts, and delete your data on request. The full policies are published at /policies.

I like the checklist section. Easy interface to use while flying.

Super straightforward, no frills app. Exactly what I was looking for for low intensity checklists outside of a paid service like foreflight.

★★★★★

Fantastic app to add your checklists. Scratch pad, central location to hold your docs and so much more. Nice to see know I can no longer miss a check without the conscious decision. Great work thank you

★★★★★

What a great app. So easy to use and setup. There is even a checklist editor online so it’s easier to create custom checklists. My only gripe would be that the checklist doesn’t auto scroll to the top when tapping the ‘next section’ button. But that’s such a minor issue on such a great app.

This is an amazing tool. It allows you to create your own checklists and has a digital scratchpad to take notes on. What’s not to like about it!
