TZF Apps

About this app

Your Brazilian Digital Co-pilot for Simple and Safe Navigation.

Designed by pilots, the app focuses on what really matters: increasing your situational awareness and simplifying navigation in visual flight rules (VFR).

1. NAVIGATION AND FLIGHT HUD
Have precise guidance and real-time monitoring in the palm of your hand:

Real-Time Moving Map: Exact position on detailed and fluid maps, with WAC, REA and GeoPDF chart overlay (rnav, adc, etc.)

Direct-To & Multi-Point Navigation: Plot instant routes to any ICAO or create complex multi-point routes with just one touch and smart input.

Flight HUD: Critical navigation information consolidated in a clean interface.

Personal Waypoints: Instantly record your personalized points of interest during flight, and export the data.

2. ADVANCED VERTICAL PLANNING (VNAV)
Manage your descent with high-level automation:

Automatic TOD Calculation: Know exactly where to start your descent based on altitude, speed, and desired rate.

Intelligent Ramp Guide: After TOD, the HUD indicates the ramp to reach the ideal altitude over the destination with visual alerts in different colors depending on the current situation.

3. METEOROLOGY AND SITUATIONAL AWARENESS
Integrated global data for safe decisions:

Live Weather Radar (RainViewer): Visualize the real-time movement of rainfall over your map.

Satellite Imagery (NASA GIBS): Access GOES-East satellite data to see cloud structure and top temperature, day and night.

Airspace: Visualize Control Areas (TMA) and Special Aircraft Routes (REA), Airports and Routes, regardless of internet connection. 4. CONNECTIVITY AND CUSTOMIZATION

Flight Simulators: Full connectivity with X-Plane and MSFS for ground training.

Display Modes: Switch between Normal, Hybrid (satellite photo), and North-Up or Track-Up maps.

Database: Aerodromes with elevation and runway data, using official DECEA/AISWEB source, with WAC, REA and GeoPDF charts overlaid on the mobile map.

5. COLLABORATIVE ALERTS
Generate real-time alerts to inform other pilots of current runway conditions.

Alerts validated by other pilots, ensuring correct and up-to-date information.

6. ADS-B - receive data overlaid on your mobile map via the internet, identifying where there is traffic around you.

7. Auto ADC - when landing at an airport with an available ADC chart, it opens automatically.

8. Track LOG 3D - Review your route and maneuvers in 3D!

⚠️ IMPORTANT: VFR Direct is a navigation aid tool, not a primary source. It does not replace official means or the judgment of the Pilot in Command, who is ultimately responsible for the safety of the operation. This application does not provide separation from terrain or obstacles. Some functions require mobile data.
