Welcome to the Wingman blog

Welcome to the Wingman blog

This is the Wingman blog: the place for app news, flying tips and stories from the pilots who use it. Here is what we plan to publish.

What to expect

  • App updates. New features, improvements, and what we are working on next.
  • Flying tips. Practical advice on instruments, thermals, airspace and planning, for pilots just off their course and for those with hundreds of hours.
  • Community stories. Flights and trips from Wingman pilots around the world.

Built for pilots

Wingman turns an iPhone and an Apple Watch into a full set of flight instruments for paragliding and free flight:

  • Vario. A reactive variometer with audio feedback, so you can watch the sky instead of the screen.
  • Live tracking. Share your position in real time with friends and family.
  • 3D flight replay. Review routes, thermals and decisions after landing.
  • Logbook. Every flight logged automatically, with statistics and maps in one place.
