ForeFlight, one of the pioneer mobile app developers for pilots, has earned Qualified Internet Communication Provider (QICP) status from the FAA. According to ForeFlight, the new status means that Part 121 and Part 135 operators can use ForeFlight as their official source for weather information.
The QICP process was established to allow companies to provide NOTAM and weather data to pilots over the Internet. The company said it worked hard to meet the stringent standards set by the FAA and that the new designation puts it in the same company as some much larger firms. “We’re thrilled to be on the list,” the company said.
