Jeppesen ForeFlight is venturing further into the hardware side of aviation with the Sentry SkyPlay, an instrument that mounts in an aircraft’s panel and replicates the ForeFlight Mobile electronic flight bag environment. SkyPlay is manufactured by uAvionix, which also makes the Sentry series of ADS-B receivers for Jeppesen ForeFlight. Pricing and availability will be announced later.

SkyPlay isn’t just the one instrument that visitors to EAA AirVenture Oshkosh next week can see at the Jeppesen ForeFlight exhibit, but part of what the company said is “a connected avionics and mobile device ecosystem that brings the familiar ForeFlight experience to the panel while preserving the flexibility pilots value on their iPad.”
