iFly EFB's landing gear position-indicating system
With sensors attached to the landing gear, iFly EFB's position-indicating system can help pilots ensure that the gear is in the proper position.

Electronic flight bag (EFB) developer iFlyEFB is developing a landing gear indicating system that displays the position of the gear on the app. The system works with sensors mounted on the landing gear and indicates whether the gear is up or down.

“For amphibious aircraft, this can provide an additional layer of awareness before water-scooping operations and during landing, when proper gear configuration is critical,” according to iFly EFB. “This integration demonstrates how iFly EFB is expanding beyond navigation and flight planning to deliver greater operational awareness in the cockpit.”
