Pocket METAR Home

Pocket METAR is a multi function software for GA Pilots that want to keep track of weather reports for different airports using a PDA.

You can download new METAR reports and the software will sort and store them under the correct airport in its database.
It also comes with a built in crosswind calculator, just pick an airport and what runway to use and if a METAR report has been received - it will calculate your crosswind component.

Try it, its free !

You can read more about the features of Pocket METAR on the presentation page.

Update!
I have stopped development on PocketMETAR and have released the source code.
If someone wants to continue development the source code can be found here
