Check Out The Competition

Of course we would prefer it if you decide to subscribe to AvWx.net rather than the competition, but we also believe in making informed decisions when it comes to anything related to aviation. So, with that in mind, here's a page of links to all the competing products we know about. If you discover another product that delivers wireless aviation weather information, send us the URL and we'll post it here.

Weather Notice

Weather Notice is a subscription service that will send weather reports, including maps and radar images to your cellphone via SMS and MMS.

HZ.COM

HZ.com is a free "Information On Demand" service. You can access the service from pagers or from your cell phone (if it is able to send email messages).
The command set is a little cryptic, but includes METAR and TAF (along with MCDONALDS, STARBUCKS & WAFFLEHOUSE).

METARTAF.COM

Cool Site! This apparently free service will send METARs or TAFs to your cell phone or pager via e-mail. Has the ability to schedule reports in advance.

eMETAR.com

This innovative service lets you know when the weather meets your conditions to fly. Their servers will watch METARs at airports you specify and notify you when conditions meet your personal minimums.

Pilot My-Cast

To use Pilot My-Cast, you download a Java program into your phone, and it talks to the network. Pilot My-Cast looks to be a very capable system.

SMSAdvantaj

No, we didn't spell that one wrong! SMSAdvantaj has weather and airport information available for WAP (cellphone) browsers.
