*****Data*****
All chart & plate data comes directly from GlobalNavSource, no 3rd party subscriptions required. The GlobalNavSource plates leverage FAA & ICAO symbology in a database that covers the world. GlobalNavSource provides seamless compilations of VFR and IFR chart sources, for the easiest chart-browsing experience.

* IFR High
* IFR Low
* VFR Sectionals
* VFR Terminal Area Charts

Professional users will appreciate the tailored plates for low visibility/SMGCS, Deice, Ramp/Gate, Special Approaches, RNP SAAR, tailored minimums and more.


*****Updates*****
Updates are a breeze. Data updates are handled in the background, while using the app, so using the app is not disrupted. In addition, EFB caches upcoming plates and charts before they are needed, so you are ready to fly.

Updates are accomplished wirelessly and only plates that change are updated. This greatly reduces bandwidth and speeds the update process in comparison to NACO based apps.


*****Weather*****

* METARs and TAFs - view information from thousands of weather stations around the world

* Chart overlays - display METAR weather layers on all chart types


*****Part 135 & Part 121 Operators*****
Part 135 & Part 121 operators require controlled software for FAA approval of paperless ops. EFB 121 is the controlled version of this app. Operators requiring EFB 121 for paperless operations may contact sales@globalnavsource.com for more information.

* subscriptions can now include global airport plates
