What it does

Works out offline what you may see on each side of the aircraft, minute by minute: more than 2 400 peaks, cities, islands and sights and 1 200 mountain ranges, islands, lakes and deserts from the Natural Earth map, in daylight or as city lights at night. Shows where the sun will be, sunrise and sunset, recommends a side with the window seat letter for your aircraft, and on board tells you with GPS what is coming next.
