Airport/Facilities Directory Page
Fast access to Airport/Facilities Directory is a superb tool during pre-flight planning as well
as in-flight, especially at night when digging around in sectionals and other resources in a
dark red light environment is the only alternative.
WingX contains extensive A/FD information and displays it in a concise and easy to read colorcoded
format. The page consists of five sub pages. These sub-pages are the Communications,
Location, Facilities, Runway, and Chart sub-pages. Each sub-page contains specific information
about the airport, navaid, fix, intersection, or waypoint. Some sub-pages may not always be visible.
For example, the Runway sub-page is not visible when not displaying an airport.
Communications
The Communications information includes the airport’s ASOS, ATIS, Clearance, Ground, Tower, CTAF, and
Approach and Departure frequencies. An example of the information is:
