Pilots, its time to get rid of your sight level, water bottle or whatever "old school" method you have been using to determine cloud height. Introducing Cloud Topper, a revolutionary new sight level designed specifically for the iPad and iPhone.

With Cloud Topper you can use your device camera, gyroscope and accelerometer as a traditional sight level. Plus you can enter the distance to a cloud and Cloud Topper will calculate your height above or below that cloud. The displayed cloud height is even corrected for the curvature of the earth.

Cloud topper is a fun, easy to use app that should be included in every pilots EFB.

Cloud Topper is not an FAA approved source to determine cloud height. Cloud Topper is not intended to replace weather radar or pilot skills and judgement. Always consult the Aircraft Manufacturer’s Aircraft Flight Manuals, Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) websites and publications, and individual company policies.

Latest reviews of Cloud Topper app for iPhone and iPad

Useful, Not Perfect
Works well as a better refined guesstimator than the naked eye. It would be great if the artificial horizon had an option to always display at 0* and move on the screen relative to the phones actual angle... would be great for measuring in light chop.
Great addition to any flight bag!
Does just what is says and then some! Been looking for an app like this for quite some time and its finally here! Thanks for the great addition to the App Store.
I love this app!
So cool! This app makes me feel like a real pilot using the same tools inflight!

What a great tool for the flight deck; ANY flight deck, from a 172 to a 747. For less than a buck? Why WOULDNT you have this tool at your disposal?!
