Is the iPad Legal for Flight?

Yes. The iPad is perfectly legal for Part 91 flying as it qualifies as an electronic flight bag (AC 91-78). It has also been approved for use by the FAA for charter and air carrier operations. For additional reading, see the September-October 2011 issue of the FAA’s Safety Briefing Newsletter.
