What is Minimums?
Minimums is an aviation weather app that allows pilots to view METARs and TAFs for thousands of airports around the world. It also tells pilots if their airports are above, at, or below their custom minimums for takeoff, landing, and alternate. The app allows pilots to create custom alerts to be notified as soon as the weather changes, and customize visibility, wind speed, altimeter setting, and temperature units. The app also includes a map view with flight category, ceiling, and visibility, and allows pilots to view their own personalized list of airports or weather stations.
1. View your own personalized list of airports or weather stations and quickly determine if they are above or below your takeoff, landing, or alternate minimums.
2. For example, you might ask Minimums to alert you when the visibility at a certain airport goes above 1 mile.
3. Minimums can be completely customized based on ceiling and visibility and is useful for all pilots, from airline to student.
4. DISCLAIMER: Never use Minimums as your sole source of aviation weather information.
5. If it's red, the weather goes below your minimums at some point during the forecast.
6. No more digging through TAFs to see if your favourite alternate will hold - if it's green, it's good for the duration of the TAF! If it's yellow, it's at minimums.
7. Alerts are currently available for ceiling, visibility, flight category (VFR, MVFR, IFR, LIFR), lowest cloud layer, and new metar issued.
8. However, with Data Sharing enabled, the app can suggest commonly used minimums for each airport.
9. Please note that minimums must be set manually by each user - a database of IFR minimums is not included in the app.
10. Or maybe the ceiling at your destination is 300 feet and the minimums are 500 feet.
11. While we strive to make Minimums completely error-free, sometimes the wrong information can be displayed.
