Anyone using Cloud ahoy app??

[Guest FlyingPhil]

Ive been playing around with the iPhone app called Cloud ahoy. Basically it maps your flight with an overlaid google satellite view. Pretty cool I thought but I'm sure the members out there have some advice on other apps.

 

Click on here for an example of a recent training flight of mine at YBOA.

 

My recent flight on February 1st 2017 around YBOA

 

It's $45 a year, but you can trial it for a month free.

 

Thoughts?!?

No problem for me. I am not game to go into the cloud.

Ha! Just read some of the replies. Nice. Yeah I'm thinking its (Cloud ahoy) is a little gimmicky and the newer 5.0 version is going to be $66 USD after march (currently $45 till then). I'll just enjoy the flights and leave it at that. Would'nt mind a go-pro to re-live my short comings but I think this isn't probably isn't kosher with instructors. I know that some schools activity encourage recording flights but as a part time instructor in the public service, I would'nt like to be filmed all the time. Who knows where that footage will end up. Anyhoo, it was good fun to try but I don't really need it.
