It’s a collaboration between two aviation industry heavyweights that pilots have long been asking for. In an announcement today, Jeppesen and ForeFlight said customers will soon be able to view Jepp navigation data and approach charts in the popular ForeFlight Mobile app as part of a long-term “strategic alliance” to combine the capabilities and content of both. The collaboration will also see significant features and functionality of the ForeFlight app merged into Jeppesen’s FliteDeck Pro app used by airlines and large flight departments.
