TrooTrax Mission - Unprecedented Weather and Hazard Awareness

On a sunny day with a light breeze, no one is concerned about the weather. Add in low ceilings, frontal systems, storm tracks and the situation escalates. The amount of time to check the weather and forecasts before a flight increases exponentially as the ceiling and visibility decrease. More information without integration is not helpful when you must “LEAVE NOW”, but safely. TrooTrax Mission is designed to expedite time-to-launch by automating weather and hazard checking along a route using over 63 current and forecast FAA-NOAA and Baron Aviation weather layers. Safe – Fast – Confident.

Built To Suit Your Operations

Flight Following

Whether you’re a single aircraft operator or manage a fleet of hundreds of helicopters, planes and/or jets, real-time information is critical. Knowing where your aircraft are and receiving notifications of events and text messages keeps you up-to-date and informed. This is the foundation of the TrooTrax Mission suite.

Integrated Aviation Weather

63 current and forecast FAA-NOAA and Baron Aviation Weather layers are available as an option. Integrating graphic visual weather at various flight levels with your aircraft location presents a powerful and instant oversight of flight conditions.

Automated Flight Risk Mitigation

Rapid knowledge of weather and flight hazards categorized as: all-clear, close to minimums, below minimums. Adding the Mission module enables the most comprehensive flight-plan and active flight monitoring available. Comprehensive settings can be established for the whole fleet or per aircraft type.

Part 135 Compliance

TrooTrax Mission coupled with your choice of aircraft tracking device fulfills the flight following requirements of Part 135.

Master Caution Panel Alerts

If your role has you on-the-move but requires aircraft situation awareness, we’ve got you covered. Configurable to your requirements, the TrooTrax Mission Mobile App provides flight following or a full Operational Flight Control Center in your hand - wherever you are.

Flying VFR into IMC is a leading cause of fatal accidents—almost four times deadlier than encounters with thunderstorms and icing combined.

"Among these continued VFR into IMC accidents, more than 72% were fatal versus 17% among other types of general aviation events."  
- Plane and Pilot magazine, 2016

Fly safer with TrooTrax Mission - which helps mitigate VFR into IFR both before and during a flight.
