fDeck: flight instruments

a flight deck for your pocket

Features & Capabilities

fDeck is a pocket flight deck that brings graphically accurate flight instruments to your mobile device. It lets you tune real-world radio aids from a global aviation database or create your own virtual navaids to practice radio navigation—perfect for training or as a supplementary set of instruments during flight. The app also includes a movable map with airspace, airports, and live weather and ADS-B traffic, so you can reposition your virtual aircraft and see how instruments would respond at a new location.

Current instruments include HSI, VOR, ADF, artificial horizon, groundspeed indicator, vertical speed indicator, compass with a functioning heading bug, altimeter with barometric adjustments, chronometer with fuel totaliser, flight planner, and weather/wind with live METAR/TAF. You can tune multiple instrument slots, switch to full-screen focus, and add your own navaids for practice. Each instrument has a video tutorial. fDeck is free with ads, and Premium unlocks remove ads, extend station limits, monthly nav data updates, weather overlays, live ADS-B traffic, TCAS features, and the X-Plane connector.

User Reviews

Users consistently praise fDeck for its ease of use, comprehensive instrument set, and usefulness as a teaching tool and cockpit backup. They also value responsive developer support and flexible pricing. A common concern is compass/nav indicator misalignment, with occasional glitches in certain integrations. Overall, it’s a highly capable, user-friendly flight instruments app suitable for learning and on‑board backup, especially on iPhone.
Pros
  • Very easy to use and well laid out, making navigation and operation intuitive.
  • Broad and versatile instrument suite with features like ADF, GPS speed, DME, VOR/HSI, inclinometer, plus flight planner, chronometer, timers, and nav aids.
Cons
  • Compass/navigation indicators can be inverted or misaligned (back course vs TO indications, VOR needles, map pointer), causing confusion.

I’ve used many aviation apps but this one is hands down the most useful. Super easy to navigate its features and lots of options. It’s the perfect back up!!

The App is an excellent tool to learn, teach, or practice the use of many avionics devices that you might not have in your plane; and the developer is great at responding to questions, comments, or suggestions.
