Technique - Flying with the iPad
By Sarah Deener - AOPA’s Flight Training Magazine
Plus up on power. Make sure your iPad is fully charged—and carry backup power or charging cables.
- Optimize your battery life. High screen brightness can drain the battery, so dim the screen to whatever you can still read comfortably.
- Update databases. Download all the relevant data—sectional charts, airport data, instrument charts if you’re flying IFR—and confirm that you can access this information offline.
- Load the route. Entering your flight plan and favorite airports before takeoff can save time in the air.
Clean and protect the screen. Using a screen protector and making sure it’s clean can reduce glare.
Have a backup plan. It’s wise to carry backup charts—whether paper charts or on another electronic device such as an iPhone or a second iPad.
A secure and charged iPad is a happy iPad
The right accessories can make iPad use in the cockpit more convenient and safer. Some pilots prefer securing an iPad to a kneeboard, while others opt for suction cup or yoke mounts. And a charger that draws power from a USB port or cigarette lighter in the panel can contribute to a pilot’s peace of mind.

If you are in the middle of your life, do you have enough years to spend a large proportion of them inside an iPhone!
