What others say about PocketFMS.

Many people have come into contact with PocketFMS over the years, and some of them managed to write a nice review or trip report and got it published. Others may have shot some nice pictures of PocketFMS in its natural environment, or decorated their aircraft with the PocketFMS logo - and we'd like to share those pictures and reviews with you! Where possible, the documents were converted to .PDF format, so you'll need Acrobat Reader or Foxit (smaller & faster!) to read them.

PocketFMS pictures.

Not reviews, but certainly recommendations: check out the PocketFMS-related pictures below. These were created & sent to us by enthusiastic PocketFMS users.

These show the flight deck of a Boeing 737NG navigating using an older version of PocketFMS, and an Airbus A320 using a more recent version! Both were shot by the flight crew.

Our long-time member PTKay has even modified the cockpit of his own bird to accommodate for a Tablet PC running PocketFMS. A genuine glass cockpit, as you can see below! Click on each image to enlarge it.
PTKay's glass cockpit! . . running PocketFMS!
 
Daryl Lowey, owner of Living Sky Aerobatics and long time enthusiastic PocketFMS user, uses his Citabria in airshows while promoting PocketFMS! Click on each image to enlarge it.

And Bob Buckfield also decorated his Piper Cherokee G-BRGI with a proud PocketFMS logo! And yes, there's a Flight Simulator version of his bird as well - including the logo! Click on an image to enlarge it.

Heinz Leuters' completely renovated Robin DR3xx has a complete PocketFMS Glass Cockpit, with an LS800 Tablet PC controlling a TruTrak Digiflight VS AutoPilot and linked to a Zaon XRX PCAS device.
A freshly washed PH-ERD. The impressive glass cockpit in flight!
 
Yep, but when it rains, it poors! Curt 'Steel Finger' from Germany found out that apparently the mighty HTC HD2 (which is a great device for running PocketFMS!) can't survive a simple 40G loop - or it's owner sitting on it . .
