ragbak and call100,

thanks a lot, I downloaded both apps and must say both are phantastic in their on right. Distant Suns is free and very well done, Star Walk makes use of all the iPhone's locating and motion capabilities (3GS) and, for currently €2.39, is a real gem. :ok:

FLT Calculator CAA CAP 371 UK: just out and quite good

Time Calculator : For adding up those logbook hours
AeroWeather : Excellent
Airports


WeatherPro : absolutely brilliant (non aviation) wx app.

Plane Finder: thought it would be rubbish, but it's actually quite good.

iPhone / iPad
 
What are your favorite aviation apps on these devices?

I really like ForeFlight and use it often.

Just do a slow read through and you will get them all....:ok:

Top iPhone 4 FREE apps
 
What, in your opinion, make for some of the best FREE apps for the new 4?

Are there any FREE apps out there, that us pilots would find useful?

Here's a good one: Notified

Nothing aeronautical about it, though.

HAve a look in the computer part of PPRUNE, there's various threads about the iPhone and apps and maybe you'll get a better answer there than in JB (where you're leaving yourself open to things, believe me!!)

Here's what the mighty forum search threw up at me, enjoy

iPhone apps
 
A cold grey Sunday afternoon so time to play with my Xmas pressy.

The little Flashes have bought their dinosaur an iPhone. What is the best/worst/whatever iPhone app of an aviation nature???

InTgreen 2nd January 2011 12:20

Games wise, Skies of Glory is cracking.. As for Apps, my E6B is quite good!

Maybe the iPhone will have a working Alarm Clock, but only from 3 January.

ORAC 2nd January 2011 13:07

Not aviation, but I'd recommend the following.

Appbox
BatteryDoctor
Camscanner+
Dragon Dictation
Dropbox
Kindle for iPhone
Flight Status
Informant
Shazam
Skype (for calls when abroad)
Sky+ (if you have Sky it lets you set up recordings at home on the fly)
Spotify
Stanza
TrainTimes
Weatherpro (in addition to Aeroweather)
WunderRadio

Depending on how much travel and who you fly with then, KLM; BA and the OneWorld alliance all have useful apps for airline travel.
WorldMate is good if you do travel lots and need hotels etc as well a flights.
AeroWeather is a great app. Hurricane, PilotWiz and Measures are all pretty useful, as is the Met Office App. Snowtam is also pretty useful.
World Time is a handy app if you have to call/travel round the world lots.
iHud and Flight Control are good for a bit of fun.:cool:

TurningFinals 2nd January 2011 14:14

FlightcomUK and aeroweather are both good.

Angry birds and Cut The Rope for games.

betty swallox 2nd January 2011 15:04

Ach. Come on! The best, by far......Cows in Space!!!

zondaracer 2nd January 2011 16:03

X-Plane-4G
Shazam is ok, was better before it became a pay app
Viber - free Voip calls, free app
Kayak, free and for finding plane tickets and hotels
Google app is cool for the photo search function

Cows getting bigger 2nd January 2011 16:09

LogTen Pro
Aeroweather
Weather Pro
Copilot
Foreflight (only if you fly in USA)
Doodle Jump
