This seminar is designed to advance the use of iPads and tablets as an Electronic Flight Bag (EFB) and a connection to information and on-board navigational systems during all phases of flights.

The seminar will cover using the iPad for pre-flight planning, understanding weather, picking your application, cockpit readiness, re-routing/re-planning, and diversions and emergencies. It will demonstrate what it looks like to have mastered using the iPad in flight.
The instructor, Charles Schneider, CEO of MyGoFlight, requests that participants bring their EFB/tablet/iPad charged, apps loaded, and data updated so you can follow along as real-world scenarios are used to demonstrate what it looks like to have mastered the iPad in-flight.
