ATIS letter changes
The moment D-ATIS rolls to a new information letter, you know — with a plain-English summary of what actually changed.
Category drops
VFR → MVFR → IFR → LIFR transitions, ceiling and visibility trends, and hazards like thunderstorms, wind shear and freezing precip.
Personal minimums
Set your own ceiling, visibility, wind and crosswind limits. Crosswind is computed against the runway actually in use, not the field's longest.
FAA delay programs
Ground stops, ground delay programs and airport closures from the FAA NAS Status feed, filtered to airports you care about.
Scheduled outlooks
A morning read on your airports with the TAF picture for the day, at a time you choose.
Quiet hours
No 3 AM buzzing. Alerts hold until you're actually awake and flying.
Set up once. About a minute.
The bot lives inside Telegram — a free messaging app like WhatsApp or iMessage. There's no separate app to install, and alerts arrive as ordinary messages.
Telegram has copycat bots — this is the only official one. It never asks for payment details; Premium is billed by Telegram itself.
