Why Vulture?
What Vulture does that made it worth building.
-
01 · All-in-one
Plan, fly, and analyse in one app
One app covers the whole day: building the task, checking the weather, recording the flight, taking it apart afterwards, and uploading the result. Nothing has to be handed between apps to get from the briefing to the debrief.
-
02 · Your devices
On the phone in your pocket
Fly with your iPhone. Plan on the iPad, read your stats off the Watch, and take the flight apart on the Mac, with iCloud keeping them in step and Handoff carrying what you have open between them.
-
03 · Weather
SkySight weather
Overlay SkySight's forecasts on the map, while planning and in flight: thermals, wind, cloud, rain, ridge lift, and wave. A legend card names the layer, the forecast hour, and its colour scale. Afterwards, scrub the barograph to see the satellite imagery from the moment you were there.
-
04 · Competition-ready
From Soaring Spot to the cockpit
Download a competition day from Soaring Spot and every flight arrives with the task already applied. Line the pilots up side by side, align their start times, and see who led and who followed. Declare the task to your FLARM, LXNAV, or Xctracer over Bluetooth. A shared results link opens the day's scoreboard and every pilot's flight on an iPhone or iPad without Vulture installed.
-
05 · Integrations
Works with 12+ services and devices
WeGlide, SkyLines, Soaring Spot, Charron, SkySight, AVWX, openAIP, XCSoar, Naviter, and Bluetooth loggers. Import flights, upload results, and pull down waypoints and airspace files.
-
06 · Privacy-first
Your data stays yours
Your flights stay on your devices and in your own sync account unless you upload one yourself. On Apple devices, service credentials sit in the Keychain on the device you entered them on, and the anonymous usage analytics switch off in the settings. No ads.
