FINALLY got a chance to take my iPhone along with a student today. He was using Pilotage and I kept the iPhone running to keep from going afoul...
(I fly in the NE, Lancaster, PA, and we have enough Class B/C P & R airspace around here to make a small nation jealous! Throw in TFR's popping up and your license is issued with a set of dice)
At any rate, on a 4S of course the screen was small and hard to see with sunglasses.
What did surprise me was a how fast the battery went down! Roughly 2 hours of usefulness. I actually turned it off on the way back.
Otherwise pleased with it! If you are used to using one, I feel it could be your primary navigation device (VFR) in spite of the small screen. Now you would still want do your through preflight planning not just whip it out of your pocket when the F16's appear :)
I would love to post a picture of my flight but I don't see any way to do that???
