ForeFlight Mobile
ForeFlight Mobile is an aviation planning and electronic flight bag app. Protocol Launcher allows you to generate ForeFlight Mobile URL scheme links.
Usage
There are two ways to use this library:
- On-Demand import from subpaths enables tree-shaking and keeps bundles small.
- Full Import from the root package is convenient but includes all app modules.
Pick On-Demand for production builds; Full Import is fine for quick scripts or demos.
Select Installation Method

Convenient. Good for quick scripts.
URL Methods
ForeFlight's official URL Schemes page lists foreflightmobile://maps/search?q=... for Maps searches. This module exposes only that documented form.
Map Search
Generate the documented URL that launches ForeFlight Mobile and searches on the Maps view.
