You'll need to know the ICAO designator for the airfield that you're after.

Edited to add: Just noticed Non-PC Plod's post. DIALMET is definitely NOT free. Calls are charged at either 34p or 49p per minute!

Avbrief is the one I have been using, but it has not worked for the last week or two. Looking on their web site it is now chargable. "http://www.activitae.com/airbase/phone.htm" provides a cheep service but does not have long tafs and does not seem to update as quickly as the data is from the USA!

All you PDA users out there
I have been hounded by some colleagues to update my older flight planning software for the PDA. After lots of 
I have put together a full release shareware version now. If you wish to try it out, then you can find it at www.qservices.biz.
I have uploaded all the older platform models as well, i.e psion 3mx, and 5mx as a few of you have asked about them.
If you have any requests or queries, then you can contact me via the website.
On a more personal note those of you that know me, will know that I was assessed as LTU in 2001 and had to leave BHL. I am now due for major surgery in the next month so you never know, I may be fit enough to get my licence back

Hi all,
I found Pocket FMS quite good and useful.

It's free for 30 days use - best make a backup of your PDA before licence period expires ;-)

Yes, a couple of tours in Eket before you went off to start the shafting(ed) process in Trini!
No: RFM graphs. When I'm back (in UK on leave) I could e-mail some samples. JB is busy at it too, for BHL.
