Feature Highlights

Graphical Weather
Built specifically to help pilots understand METARs and TAFs quickly, ForeFlight shows graphical views of the weather parameters - from visibility to cloud layers, simple graphics make it obvious how good, or bad, the weather is.
Smart
ForeFlight Desktop Edition also grabs TAFs from nearby airports when your airport is not issuing them. This keeps you from having to jump over to another airport just to get its forecast - and ForeFlight shows that nearby forecast relative to your airport and your runways.
Automatic
Being that the only constant with weather is change, ForeFlight Desktop Edition will automatically download the latest weather information, as often as you like. Just leave ForeFlight running and always have the latest conditions available.
Easy to Use
A simple double-click on an airport name anywhere on the screen causes the entire application to react - details about that airport's runways, nearby airports, and weather are immediately downloaded and shown. All weather reports shown in ForeFlight Desktop Edition are adjusted to your local time, preventing the need to do mental conversions from Zulu time.
Quick Call on Flight Rules
One of the first tasks when assessing weather before a flight is determining the flight rules in effect, such as VFR or IFR. ForeFlight Desktop Edition uses the ceiling and visibility to automatically predict the flight rules in use. The color-coded representations make it quick and easy to understand, even from across the room. The color-coded timeline gives you the outlook for the entire day as well!
8000+ Airports
ForeFlight's database contains more than 8,000 U.S. and Canadian airports.

Testimonials

I just downloaded the trial of ForeFlight Desktop Edition and that is a fantastic piece of work. I guess I'm more of a visual person and I love the use of the graphics to represent the information.
