A portable flight navigation tool has a tablet computer with GPS, and memory with an aviation database with international operating rules including transoceanic flight rules, a moving-map database with tracks, coastal airport identifiers and locations, and predefined reporting point locations for transoceanic operations. The navigation tool includes machine readable code for displaying the operating rules, reading locations from the GPS while indicating them on a moving map display, and a trip database with a planned transoceanic route for an individual flight configured by entry of waypoints or names and selection of predefined tracks. The tool has a checklist database and displays checklists for pre-departure, coast-out flight phase, waypoint-reached, and a coast-in flight phases; and may provide a heading and next-waypoint timing for rhumb-line routes from GPS failure locations to the next waypoint of the active route. The tool links as a master/secondary pair with another like tool.
