Description
Get current and precise weather conditions (METAR) as well as weather forecasts (TAF), which are used by pilots for their flight preparations. You can choose worldwide airport weather stations from the built-in database by either name, ICAO code, or based on your current location. Data will be shown in its original format or fully decoded into easy understandable texts.
** NOTE: in order to display temperatures in Fahrenheit, switch off "Show original units"!

Turn off "original station units" and voilà, degrees F! Nice complement to my other weather apps!
Great App
Well thought out information and presentation. Quick and easy to set up and use. Very useful. Thanks for making it free!
Now the only weather application I use.. and I don't even fly!
Since almost the instant I installed this application it became my only weather application on the iPhone. It gave me more information than any other weather application, more current information, and most importantly accurate information! It doesn't do long term forecast but when I want to know what the weather is like anywhere it refreshes the 12 stations I have in it nearly instantly and it gives me a picture of the weather all around my area. The search feature to find local flight weather stations is also great! My only minor suggestion is to be able to drill down on some of the symbols and break down or give a brief explanation of the acronyms for us non-pilots. Truly one of my favorite iPhone applications!
