The Eagle Roost Automated Weather Observation System is now in service.
Pilots may access the system by using their aircraft radio, or hand held on our airfield frequency of 122.900.
This system is also available online at
Wunderground
To operate the system by radio:
5 microphone clicks in 5 seconds
- Activates the runway lights.
- Activates the full AWOS briefing.
3 clicks in 5 seconds activates a "Wind check" feature for a winds only announcement
Foreflight and Garmin Pilot users will be able to receive real time data by looking up our airport identified 27AZ.
Note this system is not intended for use in IFR conditions.
I encourage everyone to "Check it out" both by radio and online sources. I would recommend bookmarking the link for quick access prior to flying.
