General Aviation Community Reacts To Reported Job Losses
Reports of significant layoffs at ForeFlight, a leading flight planning platform, have sparked concern among pilots and the general aviation community. The layoffs, which were reported on social media and pilot forums, may affect the company’s engineering and support teams. While ForeFlight has not publicly confirmed the scope of the layoffs, pilots have expressed disappointment and concern about potential impacts on product quality and customer support. The company’s new owner, Thoma Bravo, acquired ForeFlight as part of a $10.55 billion deal with Boeing in late 2025. This development was first reported by AeroTime.
