Default Avbrief?

Jon,

I've been considering the Aviation Briefing service - but have 2 queries ?

(1) Is it paid yearly or monthly ?

(2) It says in T&Cs that you have to be a pilot ?

Mark.

It seems very suspicious to me that the link is broken at such a

critical
time. Again it has gone down since 07:45 08/07/02 today. We go for weeks
without much happening of interest and just as the curtains open the

lights
go out. Is this a ploy to get people to subscribe to the Met Office

radar
@
£57!!!



I wasn't aware of any radar data problems last night or yesterday come to
that.

BTW the radar data forms part of the MetO *Aviation Briefing* Service.
There's quite a bit more to it including the high resolution 5min sferic
data from the ATD system, worth the sub alone IMHO. I suspect the free
hourly radar is adequate for most people anyway.
