Release Notes

Complete version history and updates for XCviewer

Route optimizer, thermal model & pilot coach

Our biggest release: XCviewer now plans your cross-country for you, reads the mountain air and coaches you on every flight.

Route optimizer

Pro · 3 free tries

Place your takeoff and goal: XCviewer tests thousands of glides with the day's forecast and your glider, and suggests the fastest route with every climb and its timing. Drag the line to pass elsewhere.

Where to fly

Free + more in Pro

The cross-country potential around you for the week, valley by valley in the Alps and in 25 km cells elsewhere, from the forecast and your glider, with the takeoffs to choose. Today is free.

Hike & Fly

Pro · 3 free tries

X-Alps style plans over several days: flights, walks on real paths and relaunches from summits.

Thermal model

Pro

A neural network trained on thousands of flights shows where thermals trigger, by season and time of day.

Valley breezes

Pro

Up-valley by day, down-valley at night, computed from terrain and sun.

Foehn & lee waves

Free

Foehn index for the Alps, lee waves and rotor zones, free for everyone.

Pilot coach

Free + more in Pro

Your thermalling technique, safety habits and progress across all your flights, plus a full analysis of each flight.

Your own glider

Free + more in Pro

Pick your wing, design its colours and add its polar: it flies in your 3D replays and plans.

Models help you prepare; they never replace your judgement on launch. Always check the official forecast, the airspace and the conditions on the day.
