Introduction

Devices Supported
Jeppesen has successfully tested FliteDeck Pro with the operating systems and
devices described in Table 1.

Operating
iPad Model
System
Pro (9.7-inch model) 10.1, 10.2

Air 2 10.1, 10.2

Mini 3 10.1, 10.2

Mini 2 10.1, 10.2

Air 10.1, 10.2

4th generation (iPad 4) 10.1, 10.2

TABLE 1: FliteDeck Pro 3.0 Compatibility

NOTE: The iPad Air 2, and later, are recommended devices. The iPad Pro
12.9-inch model is not supported.

Deployment Considerations
FliteDeck Pro is released through available Apple distribution models. Only one
version of the app can be downloaded to the iPad at a time. It is a best practice to
force-close the app before updating to a new version.

The FliteDeck Pro app and data, including subsequent data updates, requires 2 to
6 GB of available storage capacity on the iPad. The variability in the storage
capacity requirement is related to the size of your coverage area. Any additional
data, such as Airport Moving Map (AMM) or supplemental enroute data, will affect
storage requirements.

About the Initial Download

FliteDeck Pro requires an initial data download to use the app outside of the
Demo mode. One way to activate and complete the initial download of data,
involves receiving a JDMNotification email on your device from the company EFB
administrator with instructions on how to proceed.

Disabling Automatic App Updates

Apple iOS 7 and later versions offer automatic background app updates. When a
device is fully charged and connected to the Internet, it downloads and installs
updates for any free apps without requiring any interaction from you. This feature
might not always be desirable.

To prevent automatic FliteDeck Pro updates and to avoid downloading at an

inopportune time, you can:

1. Tap Settings from the iPad Home screen.

2. Tap iTunes & App Store.

FliteDeck Pro Release Notes © 2017 Jeppesen, All Rights Reserved

 FliteDeck Pro Release Notes
Introduction

3. Under Automatic Downloads, switch Apps to OFF.

NOTE: Preventing the automatic update of the app does not impact the
availability of reoccurring data updates to FliteDeck Pro.

App Update Considerations

After downloading or updating the FliteDeck Pro app, note the following:

• FliteDeck Pro 3.0 may require new data file downloads.

• FliteDeck Pro automatically begins the download of data upon updating the
app. The Update screen displays Download in progress and the update
status bars for each data type is blue, as it updates.

The time necessary to download and perform data updates depends on the speed
of your Internet connection and size of your coverage area.

Ensure that you allow for the necessary time to complete the update before
beginning the update procedure.

What is Preserved When Updating the App

When FliteDeck Pro is updated from one version to another, the app preserves
the following information:

• Customized FliteDeck Pro global settings under user control, including

registration and account information

• Saved Flights

Connectivity Considerations
FliteDeck Pro requires a reliable Wi-Fi or cellular Internet connection to perform
many of its capabilities.

In addition to downloading data updates, for example, an Internet connection is

required to download Organized Track System data, load new routes sent from a
flight-planning system, download weather, and refresh the list of ATC-cleared
routes. Sharing flight information between iPads also requires a Wi-Fi or
Bluetooth connection.

FliteDeck Pro displays ownship position based on the built-in iPad GPS, or any
external GPS device that may be used. When valid positional data has not been
received, FliteDeck Pro displays an amber badge on the GPS Status button on
the FliteDeck toolbar. The minimum required GPS accuracy to display ownship is:

• 200 meters for the enroute map

• 35 meters for the Airport Moving Map
• 50 meters for approach charts
• 17 meters for taxi diagrams

Introduction

About Connecting to an Aircraft Interface Device (AID)

A new setting under Services in FliteDeck Pro global settings is introduced with
FliteDeck Pro 3.0. This setting is the Aircraft Interface Device setting. There is
currently only one option available with the FliteDeck Pro 3.0 release and that is
the Boeing Onboard Navigation System (ONS). The default setting is None.

NOTE: Operators may be required to obtain additional authorization to use this

function.

FIGURE 1: FliteDeck Pro Global Settings - Services > Aircraft Interface Device

When Boeing ONS is selected, FliteDeck Pro searches for a Boeing ONS Aircraft
Interface Device (AID) connection in your aircraft. The AID connection provides
more consistent GPS information between the aircraft and your iPad.

NOTE: If your operation obtains GPS source for the FliteDeck Pro application
from an Aircraft Interface Device, please note that the GPS antennae may
be offset from the cockpit and correspondingly shift the display of the
ownship position on the map. The offset to the GPS antenna will need to
be accounted for in determining the total accuracy of the system.

FliteDeck Pro displays the GPS source used by your device from the GPS Status
button on the FliteDeck Pro toolbar.

What’s New

The Route List (Smart Notes)

The Route list, also referred to as Smart Notes, dynamically elevates route-based
navigation objects from the enroute map and filters it to the context of your flight -
minimizing your need to interact with the app during flight.

Key information in the route list includes: operational notes such as prior notifica-
tions, CPDLC logins, comm sector frequencies, and compulsory reporting points.

All are presented as they occur along your route - filtered by direction, applicability
to specific FIR sectors, as well as entry and exit from a given airspace.

About the Route List

The top of the Route list corresponds with the beginning of your route.

Operational notes are numbered when the object to which they are associated
intersects with the route corridor. The numbers start with 1 at the origin and
increment in ascending order as you progress toward the destination. If you
modify your route, the Route list refreshes and any numbered notes along The top
of the Route list corresponds with the beginning of your route.

You can scroll the list by dragging your finger up and down the list. You can also
set the Route list to scroll along with the moving map by enabling Moving Map in
the FliteDeck Pro global settings.

When the list scrolls, objects within a FIR boundary slide up underneath the FIR
row in the list. When the last object for that FIR scrolls under the FIR, the next FIR
scrolls to the top.

With Moving Map enabled and GPS minimum requirements met, FliteDeck Pro
scrolls the Route list along with the moving map.

NOTE: Any permanent user waypoint or object that intersects with the route
corridor that has an operational note associated with it will be identified in
the Route list with an “Off Route” label.

Showing and Hiding the Route List

To display information in the Route list, you need to enter two or more points in
the Flight Info drawer.

 To show and hide the Route list:

1. Tap the Route list button from the FliteDeck control bar while viewing the
Enroute map.
FliteDeck Pro displays two tabs when you tap the Route list button from the
enroute map: Route and Pubs. FliteDeck Pro opens to the last viewed tab.
2. Tap the Route tab, if it is not already selected.
To collapse and expand the Route list over the map, swipe the handle at the
bottom of the list up and down.

What’s New

Viewing the Route List with Moving Map

When Moving Map is set to ON in FliteDeck Pro global settings, the Route list
scrolls as the ownship position passes over navigation objects on the map.

As the ownship position passes over an object in the Route list (such as
waypoints, navaids, etc.), that object slides under the FIR.

When Moving Map and Display Ownship are both set to ON and the GPS
accuracy is 200 meters or better, FliteDeck Pro indicates the next active waypoint
along your route with a vertical magenta line.

NOTE: When Moving Map is enabled, any action that pans the map stops it from
moving. Tapping the Present Position button from the enroute map
resumes the moving map.

Adjusting the Route Corridor

The route corridor is the shaded area on each side of your route that is displayed
in the Route list.

The width of the route corridor determines how much information displays in the
Route list. When the corridor is wider, more notes and route-based information
appear in the Route list. When the corridor is narrower, fewer notes and less
route-based information appear in the Route list.

 To resize the width of the route corridor:

1. Tap the Settings button from the FliteDeck toolbar.
2. Tap the Route Corridor flyout.
3. Slide the bar to the right or left to adjust the setting. Values range from 0 to 100
NM over land, and 0 to 200 NM over ocean.

You can adjust the route corridor with or without an active flight in the Flight Info
drawer.

NOTE: The route corridor changes from Default (10 NM each side of the route) to
Oceanic (30 NM each side of the route) at and along FIR/UIR boundaries.

Supplemental (Tailored) Enroute Data

Tailored Enroute is a solution available to your company to supplement Jeppesen
aeronautical data with company-specific enroute data.

You can quickly identify whether you are receiving supplemental enroute data
from your company by the designation of a fleet above the Flight Info drawer tab.
You can also identify whether your company provides supplemental enroute data
from FliteDeck Pro global settings where your company name will be listed under
the Account Info, Tailored Enroute Data setting. If you are not receiving supple-
mental enroute data the Tailored Enroute Data field will display “N/A”.

You view the details of supplemental enroute data the same way that you view
details for any other object on the map. Tapping the object provides more details
about the object. The details depend on the type of object selected.

 Supplemental Enroute Data can include:

• Airports: Airports that have supplemental information provided for them are
shaded on the enroute map.
Tapping the airport selects the airport and displays airport details. If an airport
has supplemental information, FliteDeck Pro displays a Company Info flyout
from the airport details. Supplemental airport information is fleet-specific and
can include a list of company information related to the airport.
• Tailored Boundaries: Customized area boundaries are indicated on the
enroute map by shaded areas.
Tapping along the boundary selects the area and displays details about the
area. Examples of customized boundaries are No Fly Zones and Mountain
Wave Areas.
• Company Communications: Shaded areas on the map can also indicate that
company communications frequencies are available for the area.

About Supplemental Enroute Data

When your company subscribes to and publishes supplemental enroute data, the
first time you launch FliteDeck Pro after supplemental enroute data has been
downloaded, you might be required to identify the fleet for which the supplemental
enroute data will be used. Fleets are defined and named by your company.

FliteDeck Pro preserves the fleet selection until you change it, or it is removed
from the latest tailored enroute data set.

Changing the Fleet Selection

If you ever need to change the fleet selection for which supplemental enroute data
is received, you can do so from the Settings button on the FliteDeck toolbar.

1. Tap the Settings button from the FliteDeck toolbar.

2. Tap the Fleet flyout.
3. Select another available fleet.

FliteDeck displays the new fleet selection on top of the Flight Info drawer tab.

Additional Enroute Map Object Filters

As with previous versions of FliteDeck Pro, you can control the display of map
objects by customizing the map object Filters menu.

Also note, as always, when a route is entered, FliteDeck Pro displays any object
that is part of the route - regardless of the object’s show/hide status, enroute
theme, or zoom level.

The following table includes new enroute data (indicated with an asterisk) and the
default settings that govern when enroute map objects appear (if they are set to
show) at specific zoom levels and enroute themes.

What’s New

The Airport Moving Map

With this release, FliteDeck Pro integrates an Airport Moving Map functionality
into the app as a next step in introducing additional data-driven capabilities.

FIGURE 13: What’s New in FliteDeck Pro 3.0 - AMM

Airport Moving Map uses a detailed database to dynamically render runways,

taxiways, and airport structures. Combined with GPS, Airport Moving Map
displays ownship position on the airport surface, improving situational awareness
and runway safety at large or unfamiliar airports.

NOTE: Airport Moving Map is not available for all airports and each operator can
subscribe to as many or few airports as required for their operation.

What’s New

Displaying Airport Moving Map

The depictions of gates, center lines, hot spots, and other enhanced details
further enhance your situational awareness on the ground - and is as easy to
access as a tap.

A toggle button displays at the bottom of the taxi chart area when you select a
Taxi chart that has an AMM depiction available.

With a simple tap you can toggle between the Airport Moving Map and the taxi
chart.

NOTE: Airport Moving Map is a supplement to the airport diagram and not to be
used as a replacement for the taxi chart.

Displaying Ownship on the Airport Moving Map

For those operators authorized to display ownship and moving map in flight, the
ownship position is available on the Airport Moving Map when:

• Display Ownship under the Airport Moving Map setting in FliteDeck Pro global
settings is set to ON.
• Moving Map under the Airport Moving Map setting in FliteDeck Pro global
settings is set to ON.
• The aircraft speed is less than the setting in Taxi on Landing Speed Threshold
in FliteDeck Pro global settings.
• GPS accuracy is better than 35 meters.

Viewing Moving Map

You can view Moving Map on the AMM depiction without displaying ownship by
setting only Moving Map (and not Display Ownship) to ON under the Airport
Moving Map setting in FliteDeck Pro global settings.

In this case, the map moves along with ownship position, and the Present Position
and Map Orientation buttons are still available - just without the display of
ownship.

NOTE: When Moving Map is enabled, any action that pans the map stops it from
moving. Tapping the Present Position button on the enroute map resumes
the Moving Map.

Highlighting the Map

Highlights persist on the chart until you remove the highlights, or update the AMM
depiction.

 To highlight information on the Airport Moving Map:

• Tap the Highlight button.

In highlight mode, your finger acts as a highlighter on the map.
• Tap the Highlight button again to exit highlight mode or tap one of the
following buttons:
• Clear All button to clear all highlights.
• Undo button to remove the last highlight.

NOTE: Highlights are not shared with the flight information when you share flight
information from one iPad to another.

Automatically Displaying the Airport Moving Map on

Landing
FliteDeck automatically switches to the Airport Moving Map upon landing when
these conditions are met:

• You switch Set as Default on Landing to ON from the Airport Moving Map
(AMM) setting in FliteDeck global settings.
• Your aircraft is moving no faster than the speed specified in the Taxi on
Landing Speed Threshold field in FliteDeck global settings.

Notifications
We know that you do not always fly with FliteDeck Pro running in the foreground -
so for those operators authorized to use ownship or moving map in flight, we have
enabled local notifications - such that if there is a required prior notification along
your route whether you have put your device to sleep or are in another application
- you will receive a notification that you have reached the reporting time along with
the relevant CPDLC, Comm and note information.

What’s New

Again, reducing information noise, elevating data, and minimizing the need to
interact with the application will mean that important data is more quickly
understood, easier to find, and facilitates better communication in the cockpit.

For those authorized to display ownship or moving map in flight, you can switch
Notifications to ON in FliteDeck Pro global settings to direct FliteDeck Pro to use
the Notifications Center on your iPad to deliver notifications alerting you that you
are reaching a reporting time along your route.

Updated Help
FliteDeck Pro displays warning messages and error codes to convey information
when it encounters specific conditions related to the status of your data.

Although this information is presented for your general knowledge and you should
contact your company system administrator or Jeppesen technical support, you
can now also search for an error code or message to learn more about it using the
in-app Help.

 To access the in-app Help:

1. From the Settings button, tap Help.

2. Tap in the Search field and enter the error code you are searching for.
FliteDeck Pro performs a predictive search as you type.
3. Tap the resulting Understanding Messages and Error Codes topic flyout.
FliteDeck highlights the search term in the topic.

Known Limitations

Known Limitations
This section describes the known limitations to FliteDeck Pro 3.0.

Startup Latency
Issue: After updating to FliteDeck Pro 3.0, startup times when re-launching the
app may vary depending on the iOS device being used.

Workaround: Expect slightly longer startup times.

Enroute Weather Does Not Display in VFR Theme Upon First

Launch
Issue: After Updating to FliteDeck Pro 3.0, enroute weather is not displaying as
expected upon first launch.

Workaround: Force close FliteDeck Pro and relaunch the app and switch
Weather ON. Enroute weather displays as expected.

<Null> Reference Might Display in Terminal Chart Preview

Issue: After updating to FliteDeck Pro 3.0 and returning to the app while viewing a
chart from the Taxi chart category, a <Null> reference might display in the chart
area.

Workaround: Select another terminal chart and then return to the taxi category.
The taxi chart displays and functions as expected. This resolves the issue and it
does not occur again.

Direct To Function Latency Under Certain Circumstances

Issue: Depending on the length of a route, there may be a latency associated with
using the Direct To function.

Workaround: With longer routes, expect a potential latency when using the
Direct To function.

FIR and Airspace Boundaries May Show Small Overlaps

Issue: Some FIR and airspace boundaries may show small overlaps or gaps due
to source or post processing routines.

Workaround: In these areas, notes may not be perfectly aligned with the route
but will occur in the correct order.

Slower Performance on Older Devices

Issue: Although FliteDeck Pro is supported on all iPads that run iOS 10, older
devices such as iPad 4, might experience slower than expected app performance.

Workaround: The iPad Air 2, and later, are recommended devices.
