Description
Sky MET: The ultimate weather app for pilots, by pilots. From the developer of Aeroweather Android comes this visually stunning and feature rich application. It provides you with all the weather information you will need when you prepare for your next flight:
METARs and TAFs with a twist:
Sure, you can get TAFs and METARs everywhere, but you'd be hard pressed to find a map based over overview that provides you instant insight in how the weather will develop over time, just by moving a slider. In addition to raw text, Sky MET provides you with:
- TAF and METAR decoding - Crosswind component calculation - Weather radar for each station - Station NOTAMS - And web cam images, allowing for a sneak peek at the station sky
Wind Aloft Quickly see what the winds will be like for any altitude between ground and FL 440
SIGMETs, AIRMETs and outlooks Unlike most other weather apps, Sky MET presents you with the full range of international Sigmets and airmets required when preparing for your next trip, and when moving the time slider Sky MET will also provide a sigmet outlook. Affected regions are drawn on the map along with the station summaries. You filter on any combination of: - Sigmets - Outlooks - Tango Airmets - Sierra Airmets - ICE airmets
PIREPs Use Sky MET to quickly see all PIREPs for the last hour. For your convenience the reports have been categorised in Turbulence, Icing and other PIREPs. Urgent pilot reports, for instance when reporting low level wind shear or heavy icing conditions, are clearly marked in red.
Clouds, ICE and tops Sky MET calculates the areas with relatively high cloud density. These areas are displayed in on the map where blue and yellow coloration's indicate the likelihood of icing conditions. By sliding the altitude bar you can pick an altitude that is less affected by icing conditions. A quick glance in the left hand top corner of the screen show you the forecasted ambient temperature, wind and relative humidity. The latter you determine weather or not clouds will be likely at that position and altitude.
Sat images and analysis. Satellite images and significant weather charts are provided to complete the weather picture.
Good luck with Sky MET. Please contact us for any issues or suggestions.

Crashes instantly by Steve
Love the app on my phone, but this crashes repeatedly every time on my computer. I have uninstalled and reinstalled with no change. Windows 10 Pro on a brand new Microsoft Surface Book. I use the app on my phone daily for work and would love to have it on my laptop. Hope it gets fixed soon!

Would be great but crashes by Steven
This app would be perfect, however the only part the works is the opening map. After searching for airport specifics, the app crashes. The main map is useful, however does not display as much specific information. Please fix this problem. I would love to buy this app.
