- Visibility
- Basic present weather information: type and intensity for rain, snow, and freezing rain
- Obstructions to vision: fog, haze
- Pressure: sea-level pressure, altimeter setting (hPa mm/hg InHg) for each Rwy threshold
- Transition Altitude/Height, Transition Level, Density Altitude
- Ambient temperature, dew point temperature (Cº/Fº)
- Wind: direction, speed and character (gusts) and calculate Crosswind, TailWind, Headwind for RWYs (max 2)
- Sunrise, Sunset
You may choose different layouts (1, 2 or 3 columns) and 4 different themes plus a custom colors theme
You may run it as standalone airport, multiple client airports and a Master airport (METAR data downloader)
