View Full Version : That Blue VFR card with a hole in it
Attention Old Farts...
Does anyone remember that Blue VFR card with a hole in it? I think it was a
"Weather observation" card used around WWII. A friend asked me about it, and
all I can remember is that there was one.

Sure, I have one, but I got it at Sun n Fun about 1990.
The were all over the ultralight community back then.

Thanks Bob, I knew someone would know what I meant.
So is it just a plain blue card? No "directions"?

It is a joke weather briefing card, "instructions---hold up
to the sky and if the color of the sky as seen through the
hole matches the card, go fly"
