  • Weather doesn't work.

    Weather does not work, either in METAR or TAF. Worked fine in the last version.
  • No METAR or TAF

    Will not save identifiers to get METAR and TAF wx.
  • Bad update

    It was a great toll for pilots until the last update. After that I can't check METAR and TAF. Also the previous format was easier to visualize.Please correct it or return to previous version.
  • Handy pilot weather tool

    This pilot tool is very handy to quickly pull up the METARs and TAFs for airports you frequent. Although its not a complete toolbox I use it frequently to determine WX for the go/no-go decision.

    The wind calculator is handy also, no need to check the wind component chart any longer.

    The runway conditions tool does not work at my airports.

  • Very handy, use it most days.

    Does what it does well. Good for crosswinds, HOT confirmation, etc. not quite sure why the guy who gave this one star and called it rubbish thinks this is a game ?!? One slight issue is with runway decodes, sometimes it states the code is invalid, this needs addressing. Very good interface, easy to use. Nice job.

  • Mr. Airline pilot guy

    Use it for the Metars and TAFS function. Works perfect.
  • Could be good

    Unfortunately doesn't work. After starting the app a couple of times it's not possible to enter an airport to receive wx reports.
  • International flying uses

    This app is used by me during every flight over Russia and China for it's Flight Level Allocation (FLAS) charts for Russia and China. As a ready back up to the source documents on board it is invaluable. The RWY decoder is also very useful.
    I've had this app for quite a while now and today was the first time that I have had a problem with it not opening. To correct the problem I have had to delete and then reload the app (iPhone 4). It's working fine again. Great all round app.

  • Profesional pilot

    I agree with 3-4-5, at least is free otherwise it's useless
  • GREAT for international airline pilot

    As an international airline pilot, I have used the Feet/Meters conversion in Russian airspace, and the Xwind calculator numerous times. The Runway Report decoder has been useful on occasion to decode SNOWTAM and runway braking. The De-ice/Anti-ice calculator, although not strictly legal to use by airline procedure, would be a great tool for cross-checking Holdover time.

    These features alone would rate 5 stars and in addition, PToolbox can update airport weather & forecast via WIFI. As a free app., it is a service to the pilot community. THANKS!!

    Future considerations --- pls include Feet/Meters conversion for Chinese Airspace.
