iFly GPS Forum

Hi, I'm a new iFly user and I have 2 questions.

1) I'm wondering if there is a way to split the screen so I can have my frequencies for the destination or any other data I want to search for while keeping the other side navigating to the destination? the only thing I can find is splitting it for an EFIS.

2) Does the AutoTaxi feature automatically bring up the airport diagram and georeference you on it once you are close to the airport? There isn't much on this subject in the manual. 

Thanks,

Paul 

To clarify #2, "yes", after you've landed and slowed to taxi speeds.  It does not automatically pop up while you're in the pattern, if that's what you're asking.  (It will bring up the Airport Diagram if one exists for that airport; otherwise, it shows you the Google aerial view of the airport.  Both are georeferenced.)

You can manually pull up the airport diagram (if there is one) by tapping on the airport (or the "distination waypoint" instrument, if you have that displayed) to open the Airport QuickView pane.  From there, choose "Plates...", and then Airport Diagram.  

You can zoom way in on the map to see the Google Maps aerial view of the airport.

You can also put a runway marker on the map to help you with orientation for landing.  From the QuickView pane, choose "More Options", then Extend Runways, then pick the runway(s) you want to highlight.
