Aviation app maker ForeFlight has launched a new app to help passengers stay more aware during a flight without having to bother the pilot. ForeFlight Passenger is a free companion app to the company’s well-established aviation app, ForeFlight Mobile, and it allows non-pilots to follow along during the flight to get an idea of where they are and when they will arrive at the planned destination.
