iFlite 3 Updates Ready for Cessna Single-Engine Aircraft
WICHITA, Kan., June 16, 2011 — An updated version of Cessna's unique flight information and planning application for the Apple iPad is available for all single-engine aircraft manufactured by Cessna Aircraft Company, a Textron Inc. (NYSE: TXT) company.
Cessna iFlite 3 is an iPad app that allows pilots to instantly access up-to-the-minute weather images, plan routes and have access to a dual screen moving maps. iFlite 3 also includes the ability to view Cessna Pilot Operating Handbooks, calculate aircraft weight and balance and even calculate take-off and landing performance numbers.
"The iFlite application for the iPad, which we first introduced less than a year ago, has proven popular with Cessna single-engine pilots," said Brad Thress, Cessna's senior vice president of Customer Service. "This latest upgrade improves the flight planning tools available for our pilots."
Improvements over the first version of iFlite include:
• Pinch-to-zoom, moving map sectionals
• Sectionals and IFR low/high enroute terrain charts
• Inflight weather (ADS-B) with no monthly subscription
• Route rubber banding
• TFRs on the moving map

For an additional charge, a Pilot Operating Handbook can also be purchased and included within the iFlite system.
