ForeFlight has opened features for user testing in its new ForeFlight Labs, and the first is called Taxi Routing, which lets users chart their course from the ramp to the runway and vice versa. Taxi Routing uses the same bubble editor format as ForeFlight’s regular flight planning but adds some useful conventions to help plot the course to or from various locations on the airport, including a runway (after landing) and FBOs (pre-departure). At present, the feature doesn’t include airline gates or other areas of the airport.
