The Ted Striker App

If you can choose one superpower, many would prefer to be able to fly. The feeling of freedom, of weightlessness, is as attractive or more than super strength, invisibility or vision. X-ray. However, none of these superpowers are currently feasible for humans. If it weren't for…

And yes, there is one App that allows us to fly. Well, more than flying, piloting a plane. Exclusive for iPad, Xavion It is a flight assistant that according to its creators can help anyone to land a plane at any airport. At least this is what aviation specialists have confirmed after testing it in a real environment, as the App brings together all the controls and information (valued at more than 1 million euros) that a commercial aircraft includes.

The creator of this application is, of course, an experienced flight simulator designerAustin Meyer has come to define his creation as a “virtual copilot” capable of calculating the best route to the nearest airport. This is possible thanks to the GPS, accelerometer and gyroscope data from any iPad, which, together with the weather and climate information available on the Internet, provides the necessary basic information. virtual environment remaining, is easy to understand and use, having only to direct the plane through the “hoops” to glide until landing.

The best thing about this app is that it can even land a plane by itself. By connecting it to the Wi-Fi network and the plane's autopilot, it can take control of the aircraft and land it automatically.

How much would I have paid? Ted Striker for having an App like this! We assume that much more than the 18 dollars that it costs to have it with all the information of the airports (basic for its correct operation) -although its download in the Apple Store is free and free-.
