• Power lines are depicted on the map in a distinct maroon color, presented as lines with hash marks for easy identification.
Sentry Allows Cellular Data
• Access internet data in ForeFlight via your device’s cellular connection even while connected to any Sentry-family ADS-B receiver to check internet-sourced radar, amend a flight plan prior to takeoff, and more.
• Internet-based map layers will remain selectable while connected to Sentry so you can easily jump between them and live ADS-B weather while receiving cellular data.
New Airspace Settings
• Tailor the display of airspace on ForeFlight's Aeronautical Map with global Class E airspace filtering and more granular control over different types of Special Use Airspace.
• Previously only applied to US airspace, the Class E toggle now shows or hides Class E airspace globally. This toggle has also been grouped with TRSA and Mode C toggles in the Controlled Airspace section of the Aeronautical Map Settings menu.
• The new Special Use Airspace section of the Settings menu combines existing toggles for Parachute Areas and ADIZ with new, more granular toggles: "Prohibited & Restricted," "MOA, Alert, and Training," "Caution, Danger, & Warning," "TRA & TSA," and "Other."
• Access these and other airspace settings via the Settings button at the bottom of the new Aeronautical Map Drawer.

Internet Traffic via FlightAware
.In partnership with FlightAware, stream live global aircraft traffic directly in ForeFlight to analyze airport activity, check on an active flight, and more.
.Internet Traffic is tied to the same Traffic map layer used to display ADS-B traffic, and that layer is now accessible any time you have an internet connection on the ground. The layer will automatically switch to showing only ADS-B traffic when you connect to an external ADS-B In device.
.ForeFlight displays both airborne and ground traffic received via the internet just like it does ADS-B traffic, with altitude and tail number available at a glance, and many other details available with a tap for most traffic targets.
.ForeFlight uses the distinct position reports received from FlightAware to interpolate each airborne target’s movement and display it smoothly on the map.
.Internet Traffic is included in all ForeFlight subscription plans.
Slide-Out More Menu and Edit Tab Order
.Tapping the More tab in the bottom-right now displays a compact menu on the right side of the screen so you can view it without leaving the page you’re on.
.Downloads, Settings, and a number of infrequently-used tabs appear as modals that you can quickly dismiss by swiping down from the top. Other tabs such as Checklist and Logbook open in full screen, double-column layouts on iPad to better utilize available screen space.
.The last tab you opened from the More menu is always available just to the left of More with the new “Dynamic” tab, allowing you to quickly jump between that and your other tabs.
.Tap “Edit Tab Order” in the More menu to rearrange ForeFlight’s tab bar however you like, including tabs that were previously only available in More. Tap “Reset To Default Order” to undo your changes.
