Airfoil App Introduces Text Messaging and Local Airport Groups

May 2, 2017

Airfoil has introduced Airfoil Chat and Airport Chat.

With Airfoil Chat, pilots and Airfoil members can connect with one another with direct one-on-one messaging. Use Airfoil Chat to organize trips, share advice, discuss planes and parts for sale, and much more. See a local pilot you want to chat with? Send them a message on Airfoil Chat.

With Airport Chat, pilots can open Airfoil while at an airport to chat with other pilots at the same airport. Airport Chat and Airfoil's airport pages make it easy to build stronger – and more connected – aviation communities at local airports.

“We’re excited to add text messaging and local airport group functionality to the app. Airfoil is quickly becoming the essential aviation app to have in your pocket, and we have a bunch of new functionality on its way to make it the go-to place for all pilots and aviation enthusiasts around the globe,” says Gil Hildebrand, Airfoil co-founder and lead developer.
