SocialFlight, the free web application that helps general aviation pilots find interesting events and places to fly, has created a European expansion for its platform. The app even includes its “Burger Flights” feature to identify airport-accessible restaurants with a single press of a button for those seeking the “€100 hamburger.”
The company’s weekly event planner feature sends a personalized email to members, notifying them of upcoming events in their local area, with links to more information. Its interactive map also includes aviation events, user-created recommendations for aerial tours, and information on destination areas. To populate the European database, the designers worked with local experts, including country AOPA chapters, and aided by Continental Aerospace Technologies.
“Our work with SocialFlight at Continental Aerospace Technologies has demonstrated how beneficial it is to provide general aviation pilots with a mission for their flying,” said Emmanuel Davidson, president of AOPA France and Continental’s director of global marketing and communications. He added that SocialFlight’s weekly event planner email provides pilots with more reasons to fly. “It’s a great tool for pilots everywhere and I am excited to see it expand throughout Europe."
