AVICO
Aviation • Co-Pilot
Systems ready
Welcome, Captain Papi.
Your co-pilot is ready.
Checklists
Cheetah • N906JB
Use the current approved aircraft checklist. AVICO never determines that an item is complete and never replaces PIC verification.
CHECKLIST SETUP
Checklist Editor
Create or edit a checklist, then assign the flight phase when it should be used. Choose Guided when AVICO should read every item and wait for confirmation. Choose Flow + Verify when the pilot completes the memorized flow first and AVICO verifies only the critical items selected in the editor.
Normal Procedures
12 CHECKLISTSEmergency
EMERGENCY CHECKLISTSEmergency checklists are started visually. Select the required checklist below; AVICO reads every item continuously until Stop Emergency Mode is pressed.
Add Checklist
Normal-procedure checklist. Assign the correct flight phase and verify every edited item before flight.
AVICO uses this assignment instead of the checklist name. Only the checklist assigned to Cruise can automatically open the Top of Descent timer.
Checklist Items

2Enter the response expected from the pilot.
Add a New Item
Choose the words you plan to say for this item. AVICO saves and recognizes that response during the checklist. Separate alternatives with commas, such as “Done, complete.”

Identity & Approach Capability
Used for callsign matching, aircraft-specific records, and approach-package eligibility
Select and save the aircraft’s approach capability.
Category A is active for this aircraft profile.
This capability selection is mandatory. A VFR-only aircraft will never receive approach plates, and approach category does not apply. For an instrument-capable aircraft, AVICO uses the selected category and RNAV capability and automatically steps down only to a supported published line. The pilot must verify equipment capability, authorization, and every current chart.
Save Aircraft Identity
Save the manufacturer, model, registration, and approach category shown above for this aircraft.
Profile has not been verified in this browser.
Tachometer Time Log
AVICO asks for the tachometer time at the checklist point you select
When the selected checklist reaches the configured point, AVICO asks the pilot for the tachometer time. After the pilot reports the value, AVICO reads it back and asks for confirmation. The time is logged and saved only after the pilot confirms that the readback is correct.
No tachometer readings recorded yet.
Settings
Review settings before flight. Voice recognition, GPS, timers, reminders, and callouts are advisory and may be unavailable or inaccurate.

Push to Talk
PRIMARYThe large round button on the Home screen is AVICO’s primary command control.
Press, hold, speak, then release.Hold the button for the entire request. Releasing it stops pilot voice input and sends the command to AVICO.
Checklist hands-free mode: use Push to Talk once to request a checklist. After AVICO begins, release the button and answer each item normally. AVICO keeps checklist listening active between items until the checklist is completed, cancelled, paused, or closed.
Quick Voice Commands
Create exact shortcuts for commands you use frequently
AVICO saves the different text results produced by this device for three recordings. It does not identify the pilot or create a biometric voiceprint. Test every trained shortcut before flight.
Voice Command Reliability
Review what AVICO heard before relying on the action
No voice command has been tested in this session.
Low-confidence microphone results are rejected without performing the command. AVICO asks the pilot to repeat the request, and every voice-controlled function retains a button or typed fallback.
Co-Pilot Voice
Choose an offline voice installed on this device and set a comfortable speaking speed.

External Audio Cable Test
Test an aviation audio connection before using speech-to-text in Notes
Connect a compatible aviation audio cable or supported audio interface to the device. Bluetooth headset audio alone may not provide the aircraft radio or intercom feed. Perform this test while safely parked and confirm the detected signal is coming through the connected cable, not the device microphone.
No external audio-input test has been completed in this browser.
A passed level test confirms only that AVICO detected an audio signal. It does not prove that speech-to-text is accurate. Replay or compare the source and correct every note before saving or using it.
Checklist Confirmation Answers

Voice Access to App Information
Hold Push to Talk and ask for any available app function or reviewed flight information.
Examples: “Read my latest note.” “What is the arrival airport?” “Start the Before Landing checklist.” During that checklist, answer naturally with “Check,” “Repeat,” or “Pause.” Every value must still be verified by the PIC.
Reminders
The PIC chooses every reminder. AVICO never opens, advances, or completes a checklist automatically.
Checklist & Flight Reminders
For each reminder, choose elapsed time after the preceding checklist, ETA to the arrival airport, GPS distance from the arrival airport, or Off.

Additional Reminders
Top of Descent

GPS distance and ETA reminders require an active arrival airport, usable GPS reception, and saved airport coordinates. If those inputs are unavailable, AVICO will not issue that reminder.

Preferred Runway Exit Advisory
Arrival Runway and Desired Parking
AVICO asks for the planned arrival runway and desired parking or FBO when the active flight-plan ETA reaches the selected time.

Flight Plans
Pilot-entered reference only. Verify every runway, procedure, frequency, minimum, NOTAM, and chart against current official sources before flight.
Flight Plan
Enter the departure and destination airports and an optional alternate. AVICO will load airport data only for those entered airports and identify exactly which runway, procedure, frequency, diagram, plate, cycle, and effective-date records are present.
Select the flight type. Approach plates are included only for IFR or IFR-practice flights using an instrument-capable aircraft.
Offline airport coverage is limited to the departure, destination, and optional alternate. AVICO will not download or retain deviation-airport or route-corridor data.
Runway and elevation currency: Airport and runway records use the current FAA 28-day NASR cycle. NOTAMs and FAA corrections may change operational information before the cycle expires; verify current official information before use.
Active Flight Plan
No active flight plan.
ATC Transcripts
A dedicated aviation smartphone audio cable is required to feed radio and intercom audio into the iPhone. Connecting an aviation headset by Bluetooth alone does not provide a verified ATC audio feed. Transcription is a memory aid only and may be wrong.

Approach-package safety disclaimer: Automated PDF extraction can misread chart layout, minimums, frequencies, or other briefing information. Each approach must be compared with its current official FAA chart and either corrected or explicitly confirmed by the pilot. A confirmed approach is unlocked independently for flight use; approaches not yet reviewed remain locked. This review does not replace checking chart currency, NOTAMs, clearance, or other required flight information.
Show Extracted Plate Text for Testing
Pilot verification required: Compare every extracted value with the original current FAA chart, including airport, procedure title, runway, approach course, frequencies, minimums, missed approach, effective date, and NOTAMs. AVICO will not infer missing values.
