Additional Airport information

It would be nice to have information in the airport information display about nearby restaurants, hotels, taxi, etc. Especially now that Flight Guide has changed formats so that it no longer fits in my glovebox. I don't suppose that AOPA mobile app for their airport directory will run on the iFly?

Re: Additional Airport information

I would guess the mobile apps don't download the entire AOPA directory to the phone for offline reference; they probably only download data for an airport when you request information. Since the iFly doesn't have any wifi or cell network link, it would be unable to do that.

Re: Additional Airport information

Our Adventure Pilot website actually has a very robust database of such information. We intend to get this added to the iFly in a future release. Will include user reviews too.
