The missing link in GA WX planning
Title says it all. Go get a subscription. I first heard about this app from Max Trescott’s Aviation News Talk Podcast at AirVenture 2018 then met Scott and heard his talk at the Cirrus Owners and Operators Association Migration 16 in Las Vegas. It’s really good stuff. It’s the app for the pilot that is both the wx expert and the pilot that just wants to be shown when is the best time to go. I really like that it graphically shows you across the entire route what you’ll expect. Easy decision making about altitudes for higher performance aircraft. Great app. I’m sure the new releases will make it even easier to use. Thanks, Scott!

Excellent aviation weather app!
I use many aviation weather websites and apps, but I have to say that this app is the most comprehensive and, in many ways, the easiest-to-use tool for this very important task. It brings together so many important weather products in a logically-organized manner, and features excellent meteogram and flight profile tools that really help visualize the weather you can expect during the course of a flight. Yes, you have to sign up with AvWxWorkshops to use it. It’s well worth it to do so, even if it is only to use this app. Highly-recommended.

A great weather tool for any pilot
When it comes to weather every pilot knows having the right information could be the difference between a go no go decision or even possibly your life if you make the wrong call and find yourself unprepared. For anyone who isn’t a fan of decoding METARS, SIGMETS, AIRMETS, etc. and this Apple definitely Eden giving you multiple visual representations of the current weather as well as the weather along your route. I use this app on a daily basis as part of my preflight brief to give me visual confirmation of the brief I get from 1800wxbrief.
