The Aviation Weather Digital Data Service has a new version of the Flight
Path Tool that runs as an application instead of an applet.

It's large, readable and instantly interactive. Dial in the time and click
in a selection like wind barbs or temperatures, then select an altitude and
the display reacts. Change an altitude and it changes the display
interactively.

Pretty impressive for government work.

I love the adds site. I get my "official" briefing from Duats. I get my
visual version of that data on adds. Great site.

Yeah... ADDS is pretty much one stop shopping and you don't have to
remember a login to use it.

I expected DUATS and DUAT to be the better sites, but they just don't the
interactive depth and graphic output of ADDS.
