YAWS re-incarnation
YAWS Yet Another Weather Service - at yaws.mobi, as some of you may remember, was hacked into 2 days after I left the country for a 5 month stint last November. It has been off-line ever since. But it will be back-up when I return to the UK in April.
However, for those of you who need more information in your hand than you can shake a phone at, I've produced a standalone version of YAWS. (TAF, METAR, NOTAM, Flight Category, Density Altitude, ICAO lookup, Sunset, Zulu time, French AZBAs and saving favourite searches) It is an Android phone application and has been released to Google Market today.
It fully uses your phone's location service to allow one click searches for aviation data within a radius of up to 500 miles, plus it allows the more usual ICAO based searches.
Data originates from US National Weather Service, Defense Internet Notams Service (DINS) SIA France and IPPC Norway. (I would really like to be able to attribute a legal British source!)
Search Google Market for YAWS or YAWS SuperPhone. Please support it!
