Key Takeaways:

uAvionix and Jeppesen ForeFlight have introduced SkyPlay, an integration that embeds the popular ForeFlight flight planning platform directly within panel-mounted aircraft avionics.
SkyPlay allows pilots to plan flights remotely using an EFB (e.g., iPad) and then synchronize that plan to the cockpit's digital screens, enabling seamless monitoring and management from either interface.
This integration aims to eliminate the workflow translation between EFBs and instrument panels, simplifying flight management and reducing the learning curve for new avionics suites.
The system features a digital interface paired with physical control knobs and does not require a panel redesign for installation in certified or experimental aircraft.

Pilots tired of translating flight plans, checklists, and charts between electronic flight bags (EFBs) and the instrument panel will soon have reason to rejoice.

uAvionix and Jeppesen ForeFlight on Tuesday introduced SkyPlay, a new integration that will embed the popular flight planning platform directly within panel-mounted avionics. Attendees of EAA AirVenture in Oshkosh, Wisconsin, on July 20-26 will have the opportunity to experiment with SkyPlay using interactive, live flight simulators at both companies’ exhibits.
