  • A post-flight debrief tool, so it analyses data recorded elsewhere rather than being an in-cockpit aid

Jeppesen FliteDeck Pro

  • Pricing is by quote only, with no rate, minimum or named cost driver published; the page offers only Contact Sales or a live demo request
  • FliteDeck Pro is positioned for airline flight operations rather than individual pilots, with separate iOS and Windows versions documented apart
