World Fuel Services’ New iPad App Will Integrate Aircraft Performance Group’s iPreFlight Framework for Mobile Runway Analysis, Weight & Balance
October 6, 2017 – HOUSTON – World Fuel Services (WFS) announced today that their new iPad app will seamlessly integrate Aircraft Performance Group’s (APG) iPreflight™ framework. This integration will put flight planning, runway analysis, and weight & balance data together in one efficient, time‐saving app.
“From the beginning, our mission with this app was to merge our flight planning design with the ‘best of the best’ in our industry and, as a result, maximize efficiency and accuracy,” said Jeff Briand, vice president, global trip support for WFS.
“APG is the ideal partner.” APG has been providing best‐in‐class takeoff, landing, and weight & balance products and services for airlines and corporate operators since 1999.
Their iPreFlight™ framework provides runway analysis and weight & balance data, without the need for an internet connection. The new WFS app will streamline the flight planning process so pilots can complete critical performance calculations, from anywhere.
Pilots will also receive expert take‐off and landing analyses – all so they can better adapt to changing flight conditions and requirements. “Pilots will be able to access valuable runway analysis and weight & balance information right inside this one flight planning tool, making it possible to recalculate and update data without the need to switch from app to app,” added Briand. “This integration will offer improved accuracy and safety for every flight flan.”
