AeroPlus Aviation Weather

This aviation weather app brings professional weather forecasting features to every serious pilot. The app presents pilots with the well known METAR and TAF data in an intuitive and visual way. Scroll over the map to the area you are interested in and get a good overview of the expected weather in that area in a visual way. Zoom into advanced features after that for a more detailed weather analysis. This app provides pilots with often hard to find information such where to expect the top-of-clouds, severe turbulence, convective activity, freezing levels, temperatures and dew points at the flight levels and the expected winds aloft. We added a simplified but powerful Clouds Diagram showing you where to expect cloud layers, type of clouds (turbulence and convective energy) and where to expect the freezing level and the most dangerous areas for aircraft icing. Additionally, we added direct links to the most important significant weather charts in our app, so that you have all the information you need at your fingertips to make a good analysis of the weather en route to your destination. Finally, use our app in combination with the Iridium GO! satellite hotspot device to get the latest rain radar, lightning and airport data while you are in-flight.
