Takes situational awareness to a new level!

At first I wasnt inclined to subscribe - not because of WingX features, but more because of having read reps that the ipad reflects direct sunlight and tends to overheat.

Good thing I didnt listen. The app is fantastic, working as advertised. Just did an IFR round trip KCNO-KRNM-KCNO and I am really impressed! (ipad was subjected to direct sunlight and temps of 90+ F)

WingX is intuitive to use and provides all vital information. That in conjunction with a very accurate geo referenced moving map (VFR, IFR low altitude enroute, Stars, Sids, AP safe taxi, whether..). I thoroughly enjoyed the flight with WingX!

On a side note.. if you are flying PA28s, dont use a suction cup assembly - the ipad blocks a good part of your outside vision. What works really well with no obstruction of instruments is RAMs yoke mount. I took some pics, but unfortunally am unable to post them here.

Anyways, go for it - it really reduces nav workload and improves situational awareness greatly. Of course, you all know that this only can be used as a backup and is not officially to be used as the primary means of navigation.

Fly safely everyone,
Fabian
