Fly a clean pattern at any US airport.

Pick an airport and runway. Downwind draws the pattern at the right altitude, keeps it clear of neighbouring airspace, and walks you through every leg with Cessna 172 speeds and power settings. Free, from the FAA's own data.

Every public airport

4,853 airports with pattern altitude, traffic direction, runways, frequencies and Chart Supplement remarks.

Airspace aware

Pattern legs shorten or turn early when a Class B, C or D boundary is close, the way local pilots actually fly it.

Plan a cross-country

Airport to airport: headings with wind, fuel, time, VFR cruising altitudes and the airspace along the line.

Now say it on the radio

Cloudy Tower is a radio trainer: you talk, it plays tower or traffic and grades your call. Practise the radio calls for your home airport before you fly it.
