The Flying activity app is the definitive app for any aviator; and it's built for pilots, by pilots. The app currently displays altitude (GPS), groundspeed, track, vertical speed, HSI, health stats (HR, SpO2, stress, body battery), sunrise/sunset/twilight details, block times, lat/lon position, UTC time, a graphical map (using built-in map functionality, if available) and timers for fuel and oxygen, with more fields and pages to come. During flight you can view the list of nearest aerodromes (requires data connectivity via your mobile phone) and there are various alerts (eg. fuel timer, oxygen warning, transition altitude). If you want your watch to match your filed flight plan, an adhoc flight plan can be generated using the settings on GCM (requires a data connection to retrieve lat/lon coordinates of waypoints). After you return to the hangar, the activity is saved and uploaded to Garmin Connect just like any other activity.
The app is currently in BETA so the potential exists to run into some bugs. This app is completely free during the BETA period, after which time there will be a small subscription fee to use all functionality (the free version will be limited in functions not time).

NOTE: Please do NOT leave suggestions, requests or bug reports in the reviews. Instead, please use the "Contact Developer" link on this page; we will endeavour to reply to everyone.

UPCOMING FEATURES
• additional timers (count-up, count-down)
• more alerts (SpO2%, etc)
• specific functionality for helicopter flying/operations
• specific functionality for glider flying
• specific functionality/tracking for training maneuvers (circuit/pattern, stalls, forced approaches)
• specific functionality for SAR
• more navigation (flight plan route, direct to, saved/favourite locations)

GARMIN WARNING: The app is intended only as an in-flight aid and should not be used as a primary information source. If the app contains a barometric altimeter, it may not properly function (or function at all) in a pressurized aircraft, so use within a pressurized aircraft should be done with caution.

IMPORTANT: Although every attempt has been made to ensure that the information displayed (including, but not limited to, altitude, ground speed, vertical speed, track) is correct and/or within tolerances for VFR flight, you accept that the app is intended ONLY as an aid to VFR planning/flight, that the app should NOT be used as a primary navigation/information source and that responsibility for the safe and correct operation of the flight lies solely with the PIC. See the Terms & Conditions for complete details for use of the app.
