LoPresti acquires Tri-Nav Charts

By Janice Wood · May 1, 2011 ·

LoPresti Aviation has acquired the rights to Howie Keefe’s Tri-Nav Chart print and digital products (the aviators’ guide for easily navigating the airspace system).

The products include:

  • Tri-Nav’s unique aviation charts that can be used for both legal IFR and VFR flight,
  • Free Internet update service on the FAA’s 28-day cycle,
  • The “Shirt Pocket” series of AvData books,
  • An atlas of WAC Charts in a 20 sm = 1″ scale.

Rj Siegel, CEO of LoPresti Aviation and a developer of Apple products, stated, “LoPresti can now expand their reach from helping pilots make their planes go faster to offering them digital apps for their cockpit navigation, with print products for back-ups and land-based planning. We are delighted to be working with Howie on his exciting new products. This chart system will give the pilot, at a glance, a comprehensive situation awareness. Howie’s ability to develop pilot friendly tools that meet the needs for cockpit versatility, has been proven repeatedly.”

As Siegel put it, “Tri-Nav marries perfectly with LoPresti’s motto of pilot efficiency. Our next development project is to support the bound Atlas with an iPad implementation. The central problem with an iPad,” continued Siegel, “is that the screen is too small. The tabloid size of the Atlas lends itself to maximum readability and ease of use. However, if the Atlas ever catches fire, I guess you could always turn to the iPad,” Siegel said smiling.

Tri-Nav Chart are available starting May 1. For more information: 800-859-4757 or LoPrestiAviation.com
