I’m a pilot and this app is fantastic. Shows you local airport weather at a glance, including runways wind, weather and cloud cover — great visuals too. I wish they had a Watch app version.

Great App But…

Great app, but don’t make the mistake I did of donating $15 on their website to get an ad free website. It continuously requires some process to “make sure you’re human” and then required me to log in to get my favorite airports and units of measurement. When I asked for a complimentary app since I already paid $15 I got a “we’re too busy to respond to email” response.
