    EFB - Flight Planning Apps

    So the ForeFlight Nit thread got me thinking, especially since I'm starting to fly IFR again and am in the market for a flight planning app for my ipad mini 5.

    Looking for PIREPs on the iFly 740

    With the rumored demise of the iPad mini, I've begun to look at the handheld market to replace my aging Mini2. I've seen lots of great things in terms of marketing material for the iFly 740 but not a lot of direct reviews, especially in comparison to the Garmin Aera line...
