The Ted Striker App

If they could choose a superpower , many would be left with being able to fly. The feeling of freedom, of weightlessness attracts as much or more than superforce, invisibility or X-ray vision. However, none of these superpowers are, to this day, feasible for humans. If it was not for… And yes, there is an App that allows us to fly. Well, more than flying, piloting a plane. Exclusively for iPad , Xavion is a flight attendant that according to its creators can help anyone land a plane at any airport. At least this has been confirmed by aviation specialists after testing it in a real environment since the App brings together all the controls and information (valued at more than 1 million euros) that a commercial aircraft incorporates. The creator of this application is, of course, an experienced flight simulator designer , Austin 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 data from the GPS, accelerometer and gyroscope of any iPad, which together with the information about the weather and climate available on the Internet offers the necessary basic information. The remaining virtual environment is easy to understand and use, having only to direct the plane through the “rings” to glide until landing. The best thing about this App is that it is even capable of landing a plane by itself. By connecting it to the wi-fi network and the plane’s autopilot, you can take control of the device and make the landing automatically. How much Ted Striker would have paid to have an App like this! We assume that much more than the 18 dollars it costs to have it with all the airport information (basic for its correct operation) -although its download in the Apple Store is free and free -.
