Post-Flight Debrief with CloudAhoy Adds Objective Evaluation of Piloting Skills
CloudAhoy is used by pilots at all levels for post-flight debrief. CloudAhoy provides "Flight Debrief in the Age of Technology". It is data-driven and incorporates artificial intelligence technology, advanced analysis, state of the art visualization, integration of video, and automatic scoring of flights (currently in beta). The ability to relive the flight, to quickly identify and focus on specific "interesting" moments, to receive objective information, and to see it all with easy to use visualization tools makes the debrief effective and fun at all levels.
For pilot proficiency, the experienced pilot makes it a habit to self-evaluate their piloting skills after each flight, even a $100 hamburger flight. Debriefing flights includes reviewing the stability of the approach, effectiveness of wind correction, and accuracy of an instrument approach. This helps confirm and adjust personal limits, identify areas to work on with a CFI and leads to a better and safer pilot.
For primary flight training — CloudAhoy automatically segments the flight, making if easy to focus of one maneuver at a time, e.g. a steep 360, an s-turn, or a single traffic pattern out of six.
For Instrument training - CloudAhoy is incredibly effective for a thorough review of the instrument approach. The combination of 2D or 3D published approach overlays, 3D view of the actual flight, 3D Cockpit view with an "approach in the sky", and graphs including profile view - together provide a review of the approach accuracy and stability at a glance.
CloudAhoy supports many flight data sources. CloudAhoy continuously adds additional sources of data.
CloudAhoy is cloud-based. All the flights are stored in the cloud and are accessible from the web on any browser on any computer.
Last but not least, CloudAhoy enables easy sharing of flights. Flights can be shared between student and an instructor, a pilot and a safety pilot, with pilot friends, and with passengers. Flights can also be shared via email or on social media.
CloudAhoy brings technology and obective data to post-flight debriefing, adding value to flight training, enhancing the experience of flying, and helps make better and safer pilots. It is used in primary, instrument, advanced, and recurrent training, and in day-to-day flight operation for self-improvement, and for fun.
CloudAhoy was founded by a pilot-engineer, and continues to keep the spirit of love for aviation and love for technology. CloudAhoy was initially used by General Aviation pilots (first release was in 2012). In the past few years it is increasingly used by the military and in commercial aviation.
An individual CloudAhoy Standard subscription is $65 / year, with a free 35-days trial. Discounts are available for SAFE and NAFI members. Organizations can purchase an “org license” with a license management tool.
