Preflight
In development
In aviation, preparation is everything. A safe and enjoyable flight begins long before takeoff—on the ground, with thorough and reliable planning. Yet for many pilots today, flight planning software feels either fragmented, expensive, or unnecessarily complex. General aviation pilots in particular often find themselves switching between multiple apps just to cover the essentials. That’s exactly the problem we set out to solve with Preflight.

Flight planning has come a long way. Not long ago, many pilots relied on paper charts, rulers, and a calculator to prepare for a flight. Today, digital tools have become a cornerstone of aviation—yet the landscape is fragmented. Some apps are beautifully designed but lock their most useful features behind expensive subscriptions. Others focus on a single aspect of planning, leaving pilots juggling multiple tools just to put together a safe, complete flight plan.
This is where Preflight comes in. Built with the idea that smarter tools lead to safer flights, Preflight is designed to be your all-in-one companion for flight planning. Whether you’re checking weather, calculating performance, filing your route, or reviewing NOTAMs, everything is right at your fingertips—without the need to switch between apps or pay for multiple services.
What makes Preflight stand out is its generous free tier. Many essential features that other platforms hide behind a paywall are available here for free, because safety shouldn’t be a premium option. And for those who want to go further, advanced tools are available at a fair price, scaling with your needs rather than limiting your options.
Ultimately, Preflight isn’t just another flight planning app. It’s a pilot-focused platform that combines precision, accessibility, and reliability—helping you spend less time planning and more time flying, with the confidence that your preflight preparation is thorough and complete.
