Built for Australian Pilots

WxPlan is built for Australian pilots, with official data sourced directly from Airservices Australia.

WxPlan is designed for everyone, from student pilots to major airline planners.
 
Designed for both iPad and iPhone, WxPlan offers a seamless experience across all devices, with iPad providing flexible portrait and landscape layouts – fully supporting Split View for efficient planning.

Smart ETA-based TAF analysis

Simply enter your destination and ETA – WxPlan extracts the TAF lines relevant to your arrival, considers TAF3 requirements, buffers, and any weather requirements that triggers holding or an alternate, eliminating human error from decoding the TAF.

Choose to display and switch between fully customised individual runway minima for detailed, runway-specific planning.

See if your arrival will be during daylight hours with our day/night indicator, backed by official first and last light data. Interpolated QNH and temperature values enhance arrival planning accuracy. Enable METAR and SPECI auto-updates, and get notified the moment a new ATIS is issued for your airport.

Essential Tools

Get unrestricted access to official NAIPS weather – Completely free, with no ads and no sign-in required.

WxPlan gives all users free access to essential tools including Location Briefs, Area Briefs, First/Last Light, Wind & Temperature Profiles, Restricted Area Briefs, RAIM Prediction, and all Charts – no subscription or account needed.

Intelligent Customisation

Fully Customisable Alternate Minima

WxPlan advises on the need for holding or an alternate based on your ETA and configured alternate minima. Use the built-in Category minima for CAT A-D aircraft, or bulk-import your own Category and Custom minima directly into the app.

Easily switch between Category and Custom Destination/Alternate minima to match your needs. Custom minima allows for both a Destination and an Alternate minima, and can be set as either whole airport minima, or individual runway minima.

Import Your Flying Right From Your Roster

Import or export your run sheet into WxPlan and it will automatically read, analyse and store all your sectors. Quickly view all your flights with colour-coded brief summaries showing any additional fuel requirements. Easily refresh all your stored briefs with updated data throughout your day, no retyping needed.

Intelligent NOTAM Filtering

No more sifting through irrelevant NOTAMs. WxPlan sorts and highlights active and inactive NOTAMs based on your ETA. Use smart filtering to view only the categories you care about, while still retaining full visibility across all.

Location, Area and Restricted Area Briefs

Store up to 40 location briefs - each with TAFs, NOTAMs, and charts for up to 11 airports. Instantly refresh all briefs and display TAFs with live validity tracking. See restricted area briefs with expandable NOTAM details, all colour-coded for clarity.
