Remarks in brazilian TAFs
Hello there and bom dia.
I just came back from a trip to Campinas/Brazil and I´ve noticed (...I have to commit, that I haven´t recognized it for the last 2 years :8...) that in every TAF for a brazilian Airport there is a 3-letter "P"-group in the RMK-field. e.g.: RMK PBV (or PGM, PBZ, PAG,...) Does anybody know, what that means?:confused: I couldn´t find any information in our books. Thanks indeed, obrigado, até lógo Loofty. |

I went to Brazil the other day and noticed them myself. Likewise I hadn't a clue what they meant and the Aerad Supplement didn't help! So, for me too, if anyone can decipher, I would be interested.

Yes.. the misterious RMK..
It is the initials (or coded-ID) from the meteorological officer responsible for issuing the TAF Cheers BF BTW, I just checked with the WX office at SBGR and they informed me that this has been used since a while but wasn't published for the aviation community. |
Hello BF.
Thank you very much for giving the prompt information... So the remark is nothing to worry about. :ooh: BRGDS, Loofty. |
You're welcome Loofty

Hi everyone
this is a trigram of the name of the person who made the TAF
