Ann Arbor, MI, and Centennial, CO - August 26, 2015 - iFlightPlanner has incorporated Hangar Network's real estate data into its flight planning tools. Now hangars and airport properties that are for sale, lease or available as transient space are viewable as an interactive layer in all of iFlightPlanner's web-based mapping interfaces. An industry first, these new tools allow pilots to see all the space available at airports along their route of flight.
Whether buying or selling a hangar, seeking a home for a flight department or searching for transient space during an upcoming trip, iFlightPlanner and Hangar Network have brought together the best of both products to showcase all the real estate available along a flight route. Listings are updated by Hangar Network daily, allowing iFlightPlanner to provide one-click access to current, complete listing details and property information.

"Hangar Network strives to be the central resource for the aviation and airport real estate industry. Our mission is to change the way that aviators, industry professionals and the world connect to aviation real estate. By partnering with iFlightPlanner, we are revolutionizing the industry and demonstrating our ongoing commitment to finding new, better ways to navigate the aviation real estate market," said Iver Retrum, co-founder and manager, Hangar Network. "By making this connection we are taking the first step toward creating a system where, in addition to exposing an airport's long-term real estate options, aviators are able to communicate and make transient hangar accommodations available on a real-time basis." 
 
Partnering with Hangar Network has allowed us to add even more industry-leading functionality to iFlightPlanner. Whether pilots are simply viewing our freely accessible aviation charts or planning a detailed cross-country flight and filing flight plans, finding the airport real estate to meet their needs at home or on the go has never been easier," said Andy Matthews, co-founder & director of business development for iFlightPlanner. 

Pilots may choose to overlay any combination of Hangar Network listings along their route of flight by selecting their preferred property types from the Map Layers menu found in the upper-left corner of all iFlightPlanner's online maps. Available hangars, land, airport residential space, tie down space and warehouse/flex space are all shown. 

When zoomed out, iFlightPlanner's intelligent zoom functionality will show a summarized total of listings at each airport, and when zoomed in, or by clicking the "Zoom to Satellite View" button, users can see the precise location of each listing on the airfield with color-coded identifiers indicating their respective availability. In addition to the graphical map layer, all of Hangar Network's listings are also available through iFlightPlanner's comprehensive Airport/Facility Directory on the Hangars & Properties tab available for each airport.
