FlightAware, the largest global provider of flight information and actionable aviation intelligence, has announced the launch of Aviator, the ultimate flight tracking suite for piston airplane pilots and operators.

FlightAware's Aviator is an inexpensive subscription-based software, accessible via the web and iOS. Any subscriber can register multiple aircraft, including rentals and unlock indispensable features like Ready To Taxi, Premium Weather and Map Layers, Surface Visualizations, FBO Scheduling, and ETAs automatically updated via FlightAware's powerful machine predictive technology, Foresight.

“Aviator was created by FlightAware pilots to share advanced flight tracking features with other piston airplane pilots. Over the years we've gone from flight tracking to becoming the central data hub for both the business and commercial aviation industries. With Aviator, we're bringing a product with robust tools and processes developed for the most sophisticated flight departments and commercial airlines right to the GA pilot.” said Daniel Baker, FlightAware CEO.

With Aviator, family, friends and FBOs can receive alerts from preflight and taxi out through to landing and taxi in. Communications are coordinated as stakeholders stay informed. From surface visualisations displaying taxiing planes and surface movements to comprehensive airborne flight tracks, Aviator also provides monthly history reports for pilots and operators to review critical flight details.
