Great App for Airline pilots

This is a fantastic app, and very elegant design. It gives you great visual representation of information. As an airline pilot I can put in the weather minimums for the complex exemption 17347 ( the old 3585) and get immediate information if this is a legal alternate or not. I also love the wind generated limitations as well. Fantastic job guys, keep up the great work.

Nice app

This is a really nice app, easy to use, and a consistent UX experience. Data is very useful for a hobby pilot like myself. Best I’ve used so far and excellent quality for a free app.
