Zaon Flight Systems - Flight Guide iEFB

Airguide Publications is proud to offer a new application for Apple’s revolutionary iPad—Flight Guide iEFB. Flight Guide iEFB has special Data Plans available for both VFR & IFR pilots.

This includes all of the high quality airport & supplementary information that Flight Guide is known for, with the addition of: Flight Planning, In-Flight Weather & Traffic, Moving Map/Geo-Referencing capability on all IAPs, Flight Guide's nearly 5000 airport diagrams, Seamless Sectionals, WACs, IFR High & Low Enroute Charts, Terminal Area Charts & Airspace Charts. Also includes expanded chart coverage including Alaska, Hawaii & the Caribbean!

All charts, IAP's & Flight Guide's nearly 5000 airport diagrams are geo-referenced for "Moving Map" capability using any iPad compatible GPS device, including Flight Guide's FLY-Wi GPS. All charts, plates and airport diagrams can be zoomed in or out using Apple’s standard “pan, pinch & drag” interface. Hyper-linked airports on any chart will instantly bring up that airport’s IAPs and IFR data as well as all Flight Guide airport information. This would include: airport diagrams (with taxiways identified & right-hand traffic pattern depicted), Class B, C & selected D airspace graphics, frequencies (navigation & communication), flight operational information, FBOs (services, location & contact information), current & nearby fuel prices, food, transportation, lodging and recreational information. In turn, the airport information page contains a link back to that airport's location on all VFR and IFR charts. With an internet connection, METAR/TAF & Winds are available on the airport information page.

New Zaon Flight Systems PCAS XRX traffic integration with iEFB v4.1 Feature!

What you see

TCAS-style Icons and Info

Similar to weather and terrain info and alerts, traffic information is overlayed directly on the moving map display. Flight Guide iEFB displays traffic position information in the form of white open diamonds. The traffic's relative altitude is also displayed next to the traffic icon. For example, an aircraft 400 feet above would be displayed as +04. The climb or descend trend is also displayed as either an up or down arrow.

How to hook it up

Flight Guide FLY-Wi GPS

The XRX plugs into Port #1, and the GPS antenna into Port #2.

The Flight Guide FLY-Wi GPS incorporates an aviation grade WAAS GPS that communicates wirelessly with the iPad via WiFi. This enables the Moving Map feature in Flight Guide iEFB to display your position on all Sectionals, TACs & IFR Enroute Charts during flight. In addition, Flight Guide iEFB Plus Plan subscribers can view their position on all IFR Instrument Approaches and Flight Guide's nearly 5000 geo-referenced airport diagrams! This wireless connection allows for iPad mobility in the cockpit!

The FLY-Wi GPS will allow you to connect up to 4 separate iPads running Flight Guide iEFB by using its "Multi-Point" network capability! This allows you as pilot, your co-pilot and passengers to track your location during a flight.

Flight Guide FLY-Wi GPS consists of two components: the FLY-Wi wireless transmitter (about the size of an iPhone) and the GPS (about 2” in diameter). Flight Guide FLY-Wi GPS has a rechargeable battery life of up to 10 hours and comes with a standard 110-volt wall charger.
