User Reviews and Ratings
★★★★☆Not only for "wanna be" pilots
Nice app, simple to use. Pilot for 40+ years and find it to be a good tool.
Not sure why other reviewer would think it is only for "wanna be pilots", whatever that means.
Would give it 5 stars if it would open in landscape as well as portrait on iPad, usually use my iPad in landscape.
Use my iPhone in portrait, so it is not a problem on iPhone.
Have been using it frequently since purchase and find no other faults.
Good app.
Wish there were also the ability to get TAF's.
★★★★★Works very well, nice interface
App does exactly what it says, the interface is clean and attractive. I like that the Metar is shown coded first, makes for great practice for students. Also very nice use of the location API for airports nearby.
★★★★★Works great
As a student pilot this thing is great, very easy to use and helps with learning to read metar's.
★★☆☆☆Wanna be Pilot need only purchase
This app is only good for a student pilot
★★★☆☆Doesn't give Pressure Altitude
Good looking app, but lacks features compared to similar offerings.
