A recently updated version of flight tracking app CloudAhoy–CloudAhoy Pro—aims to streamline flight evaluations for flight instructors. A new feature called “CFI Assistant” evaluates multiple parameters of flight, such as indicated airspeed deviation, altitude deviation, sink rate, descent angle consistency, and centerline deviation, and it provides scores for those parameters as well as an overall score for the flight. Scores are recorded on a scale from 0 to 100, and they are color-coded green for 85-100, yellow for 50-85 and red for below 50.
