AeroXC – Flying Forecast

Flying weather forecast with detailed vertical profiles, wind by altitude, thermals, cloud layers, and weather maps.

AeroXC is designed for pilots who need more than a basic forecast. It helps you understand wind, thermals, cloud development, and overall flying conditions in a clear and practical way.

Suitable for paragliding, hang gliding, ultralight flying, and other weather-sensitive flying activities.

Key features:

• Detailed vertical weather profile from the ground up to about 12 km above sea level
• Wind speed and direction by altitude
• Gusts, temperature, humidity, dew point, and instability
• Convection height and convection condensation level
• Zero isotherm and inversion layer
• Cloud layers and cloud cover on maps and in vertical profiles
• Cloud base and other useful flying parameters
• Pressure and fronts maps
• Jet stream map for advanced users
• Maps of unstable areas and many other weather layers
• Thousands of airports, launch sites, and flying points
• Quick site summaries for selected locations
• Notifications for chosen places

The vertical profile is one of the core features of AeroXC. It lets you quickly see how conditions change with altitude and helps you decide whether the day is suitable for soaring, cross-country flying, or other flying activities.

You can open the vertical profile for a specific place by tapping and holding on the map or by selecting an airport or launch site.

AeroXC also includes weather maps for large-scale planning. You can check wind at different heights, cloud development, pressure systems, fronts, thermals, and other important conditions for flight planning.

The bottom bar provides a quick daily overview, while selected places can show a compact summary of wind, thermals, cloudiness, and other key information.

Several forecast models are available, and the app continues to improve with new features and refinements.

The application is free and supported by voluntary user contributions.
