Your one-page summary of how to use WingmanFix safely across every phase of flight. Print it, save it, know it.

01

Preflight

Ground Ops

Review expected clearances and practice readback phraseology before engine start.

Always verify performance data against your POH — never rely solely on the app.

02

Taxi & Runup

Low Workload

Use audio transcription to capture taxi instructions. Interact only when stopped.

Eyes outside at all times while the aircraft is moving.

03

Departure & Climb

High Workload

Minimize app interaction. Glance at clearance summary only when stabilized in climb.

No voice commands below 1,000 ft AGL. Sterile cockpit applies.

04

Cruise

Moderate Workload

Best time to use WingmanFix. Review insights, practice radio calls, check routing.

Maintain your scan — never become fixated on the app display.

05

Approach & Landing

High Workload

Essential clearance reference only. No voice interaction below 500 ft AGL.

Never let the app delay a go-around decision. Fly the aircraft first.

06

Post-Flight

Ground Ops

Review flight scoring, ATC transcripts, and coaching insights for your debrief.

App scores supplement — never replace — feedback from a qualified CFI.
