METAR cheat sheet

I would like to print and laminate a cheat sheet or cue card that
described the generic format for a METAR and decoded the abbreviations.
It would be helpful to have it in a small clear format so that when I
needed the information I would pull it out of the map pocket for
review.

Has anyone created such an item or are they aware of somewhere it is
available for purchase?

I recall having one that was approach plate size and Jepp punched. From the
Weather Service, I think. I can't lay my hands on it right now, though.

This one looks perfect. The price is pretty good although $6.28 for UPS
shipping is pretty steep. I would think it could go USPS but that is
not an option on their site. Thans for the reference

I have not used the cards but did work a little with them on some kneeboards.
Rob is the main man and a very nice guy. If you email he may
be willing do what you'd like. Obviously, though, he's really not in business
to sell very small items one at a time! :-) Take a good look at the
kneeboards; you might like them.

Do you recall that there's one in your AF/D?

Banyan Air Service had one on their counter that I keep handy. I'm sure
they would mail you one - or you can have a copy of mine.

Thx, {|;-)
