Description

SkyBound is the all-in-one platform for hot air balloon pilots and crew. Track flights in real time with precision GPS, coordinate with your crew, plan flights with integrated weather, and manage your ballooning business — all from one app.

FLIGHT TRACKING
Track every flight with live GPS including altitude, speed, heading, and vertical rate. Your crew sees your position in real time and gets navigation to your landing spot. Background tracking keeps working even when the app is minimized.

CREW COORDINATION
Create teams with your pilots and crew. Everyone sees live positions on a shared map during flights. No more constant calls and texts — your crew knows exactly where you are and where you're headed.

WEATHER INTELLIGENCE
Get flight-specific weather forecasts right at your launch coordinates. View wind speed and direction at multiple altitudes, hourly breakdowns, and sunrise/sunset times. Pick the forecast model that fits your flight — ECMWF, GFS, HRRR, NBM, or RAP. Check active TFRs and NOTAMs with an interactive map.

SKYCAST WIND SIMULATOR
Drop a takeoff, dial in a wind profile by altitude, and fly the app manually before you ever leave the ground. SkyCast uses the real flight HUD — gauges, target cards, drift cones — so you can see how altitude choices steer you across the map. Perfect for practicing competition tasks or briefing new crew.

FLIGHT PLANNING
Plan routes on an interactive map with zone overlays. Import KML and GPX files for competition targets, restricted areas, and custom boundaries. Set altitude floors and ceilings with color-coded rules.

COMPETITION SUPPORT
Snap a photo of your task sheet and let AI extract targets, coordinates, and scoring rules. Import task sheets directly from WatchMeFly. See task overlays on your flight map in real time.

FLIGHT LOG
Every flight is automatically logged with full GPS tracks, altitude profiles, duration, and distance. Replay any flight on the map.

FOR COMMERCIAL PILOTS
List your business in our nationwide pilot directory. Manage bookings, track your customer pipeline, send invoices with Stripe payments, and view revenue analytics.

Nouveautés (v1.11)

v1.11 - Order of Operations, Multi-Goal Tasks, Crew Nav Tools, Marked Properties

NEW

- Order of Operations panel. The target stat card on both pre-flight and live maps has a pull-out tab that lists the upcoming declare, mark, and drop order for the active target across every task that references it.

- Multi-goal and multi-marker per task. The builder and auto-parser now support more than one goal per task on digital marker tasks (HWZ, JDG, FIN, FON, MDD). Sheets with Goal 1 + Goal 2 in the same task no longer collapse into a single target.

- Ascent projection. The descent projector card now has an Ascent direction. Picking it projects forward using your current climb rate, drawing a dashed path to where the wind will carry you at the target altitude.

- SkyCast task editor in-sim. Edit the task sheet while inside the sim - changes persist back to the pre-flight sheet on close. Ground elevation is also seeded immediately when you tap-to-place a takeoff.

- Crew tap-to-switch destinations. Tap any landing pin, waypoint, or target on the chase map to reroute the in-app turn-by-turn (and chase, if running) without ending navigation. The pilot's real landing pin stays anchored even when you are routed to a waypoint.

- Crew Open in Apple / Google Maps. Hand the current destination off to the native maps app while the in-app turn-by-turn keeps running.

- Crew long-press parcel lookup. Long-press anywhere on the chase map to fetch landowner info. 25 states plus St Charles and Jefferson County, MO.

- Crew folder overlays. Pilot folders now render as one toggle row per folder on crew instead of one per overlay.

- Pilot marked properties: Friendly + Not Friendly. Save landowners during a live flight as Friendly OR Not Friendly, pick the color per category, toggle owner labels on or off. Saves persist across every future flight.

- Crew push-to-talk. New red mic button on the chase map. Hold to talk to the primary pilot, release to stop. 1-3 second walkie-talkie semantics. The pilot's mic also lights up whenever any crew is watching (used to require a spotter), and each crew member can be muted individually from My Crew.

- PZ Scout. New community PZ overlay import. Drop a pin, set a radius, choose layers, fetch.

- SkyOps Live. Multi-select your actively flying roster and Start Chase mounts the crew-style viewer with every pilot on the map, plus every crew chasing any of those pilots (filtered to within 30 mi). Nearby crew pins cluster into one icon by default.

- Post-flight location share for SkyOps flights. End a SkyOps-tagged flight and an optional modal lets you keep sharing your location with the SkyOps owner for up to 60 minutes. A green pill on every dashboard page shows the countdown and a Stop button.

- SkyOps Flights tab is now interactive. Tap any flight row to open the full detail page in read-only mode. Multi-select via checkboxes and Compare on map opens a fullscreen multi-track map color-coded per pilot.

- Weather forecast keeps your selected hour. Moving the takeoff pin, switching models, or searching a new city no longer resets the slider to current time.

FIXED

- GPS altitude spike smoothing. Single-sample altitude glitches (drops or rises of hundreds of feet that snap back within a second) are interpolated from their neighbors. Cleaned at flight-end save AND on KML download.

- Crew display through brief GPS gaps. The crew display no longer flickers to "0 mph due north" when the pilot's GPS briefly reports null. Real 0 mph (pilot stationary) still shows correctly.

- Pilot keep-alive no longer fakes a fresh fix. When the pilot's GPS callback pauses, the keep-alive broadcast no longer rebroadcasts a stale position with a new timestamp. The crew sees a brief honest silence until GPS resumes.

- UTM grid stacking. Target diamonds and waypoint pins now render above the 4x4 grid intersection labels on the live map and SkyCast.
