WeatherSpork

Everything I need and more! I have a meteorology degree and now I fly helicopters and this app provides me with every product I could possible need to get an accurate forecast for any area. My only gripe would be that the user interface is below par (especially navigating the Skew-T page) and would love to have the zoom feature on the iPhone enabled since a lot of the products yield smaller print. Also, locating specific forecast times on certain products could be somewhat confusing. Lastly, would like to see illum data integrated into this app in future updates. Other than that, this is my “GO TO” app for anything related to weather! Great job!

Title says it all. Go get a subscription. I first heard about WeatherSpork from Max Trescott’s Aviation News Talk Podcast at AirVenture 2018 then met Scott and heard his talk at the Cirrus Owners and Operators Association Migration 16 in Las Vegas. It’s really good stuff. It’s the app for the pilot that is both the wx expert and the pilot that just wants to be shown when is the best time to go. I really like that it graphically shows you across the entire route what you’ll expect. Easy decision making about altitudes for higher performance aircraft. Great app. I’m sure the new releases will make it even easier to use. Thanks, Scott!

I use many aviation weather websites and apps, but I have to say that WeatherSpork is the most comprehensive and, in many ways, the easiest-to-use tool for this very important task. It brings together so many important weather products in a logically-organized manner, and features excellent meteogram and flight profile tools that really help visualize the weather you can expect during the course of a flight. Yes, you have to sign up with AvWxWorkshops to use it. It’s well worth it to do so, even if it is only to use this app. Highly-recommended.

When it comes to weather every pilot knows having the right information could be the difference between a go no go decision or even possibly your life if you make the wrong call and find yourself unprepared. For anyone who isn’t a fan of decoding METARS, SIGMETS, AIRMETS, etc. and this Apple definitely Eden giving you multiple visual representations of the current weather as well as the weather along your route. I use this app on a daily basis as part of my preflight brief to give me visual confirmation of the brief I get from 1800wxbrief.

This App is simply amazing. Takes all of the information available regarding aviation weather, which is often times hard to understand, and puts in a simple easy to understand manner. As a pilot with more than 800 hours, weather understanding and simplification is something that I had struggled with throughout the years. This APP makes it easy to understand and helps tremendously plan your trip. Please do not think about twice and get it. You will be grateful that you did!
