## Description

SkyAware is your intelligent aviation companion, built for student pilots and seasoned professionals alike. Get real-time weather intelligence, AI-powered safety analysis, terrain awareness, and comprehensive flight planning tools — all in one app.<br><br>KEY FEATURES<br><br>Real-Time Weather Intelligence<br>Search any airport by ICAO code to instantly view decoded METAR data, flight categories (VFR, MVFR, IFR, LIFR), wind conditions, visibility, ceiling, altimeter settings, temperature, and dewpoint spread — all presented in a clean, color-coded layout.<br><br>AI-Powered Safety Scoring<br>Every weather report is analyzed by AI to generate a 0–100 safety score with clear, plain-language summaries. Know at a glance whether conditions are favorable before you fly.   <br><br>Nearby Airport Discovery<br>Use GPS to find airports within 10, 25, 50, or 100 nautical miles, each showing live flight categories so you can quickly assess conditions across the region.<br><br>Interactive Flight Planning<br>Plan routes on an interactive map with custom waypoints, weather overlays (METAR, SIGMET, AIRMET), and terrain visualization. Import FPL files to analyze existing flight plans.  <br>An AI scanner suggests safe alternate airports based on weather and terrain along your route.<br><br>Terrain Awareness<br>Real-time terrain elevation data helps you identify ground proximity hazards during both pre-flight planning and in-flight monitoring. Get alerts when terrain clearance is insufficient for your altitude.<br><br>In-Flight Mode<br>Switch to active flight mode for real-time GPS position tracking, continuous hazard monitoring, and live weather updates along your route. If an emergency arises, the app evaluates nearby airports and generates aircraft-specific emergency checklists with memory items and key speeds.<br><br>Ideal Runway Indicator<br>A visual runway widget calculates and displays the recommended runway based on current wind direction and speed.<br><br>Sun Phase Tracking<br>View sunrise and sunset times in both local and Zulu time with a visual day/night progress bar — essential for planning around daylight hours.<br><br>Customizable Units<br>Choose your preferred units for distance (nm, km, mi), altitude (ft, m), pressure (inHg, hPa), and temperature (°C, °F).<br><br>Light &amp; Dark Mode<br>Switch between light and dark themes to suit your environment, whether you&#39;re planning at home or flying at night.<br><br>DATA SOURCES<br>SkyAware pulls from trusted aviation and meteorological sources including the Aviation Weather Center, Open-Meteo, and a comprehensive global airport database.<br><br> IMPORTANT DISCLAIMER                                                                                                                                                                SkyAware is developed for educational purposes and is a supplemental tool only.
