XAirports turns your iPad/iPhone into a 2nd monitor to use in conjunction with the flight simulator X-Plane.

The app comes with a database of all 35000 airports together with the associated ATC, VOR and ILS frequencies. Important flight parameters can be set during flight and sent via Wi-Fi to X-Plane, avoiding the need to memorize data or pause the simulator. Parameters that can be transmitted:

- COM and NAV frequencies (ATC, ILS, VOR)
- position of your aircraft on an airport (on a runway or 3/10 nm at approach)
- Auto-Pilot and Transponder settings (AUX in-App Purchase)
- Thrust, Flaps, Trims, Brakes, Landing gear (HUD in-App Purchase)

The app can also display a lot of flight parameters in real-time:

- interactive flight tracking of the player aircraft, up to 7 AI aircraft, all 34000 airports and 9000 VOR
- 1500 Navigation and SID/STAR charts (subject to online availability, internet connection required, AUX in-app purchase).
- Thrust, Flaps, Trims, Brakes, Landing gear, Position, Altitude, Speed (FlyHUD iAP)

Latest reviews of XAirports app for iPhone and iPad

Excelent
Easy and straight forward
The 3.0 version is wonderfull
Rapid, clear maps, and a lot of new features Tks Mr Thiel
Very wonderful co-pilot application for X-Plane!
It was so long-awaited event in simmers lives! Now we have working, almost not buggy, intellectual co-pilot application! Thank you guys! It works very well both for small flies and for airliners. Its very useful for selected descends and approaches.
Could be better
The app is sometimes useful, but many times did not find the charts so is still necessary to find them online... The graphic is also basic and it usable only in landscape mode, and the search bar with airport list remains visible all the time so the screen available is half of what could be. Why is not possible to hide the list after the search is done???? Well...very basic app with many improvements to do. And it is not a substitute for real charts. The only useful informations given are the frequencies, but for a profitable approach you need charts also!!!
AWESOME!!!!
This app is ABSOLUTLY amazing and totally worth $.99. The only thing I would say about it is a button to turn off all the red pins when you are tracking your plane. Thanks SO much for putting this app out!
