Monthly $29.95 Weather Service Includes Weather and Delivery Service

The hottest new product at Oshkosh just got a lot hotter. Anywhere Wx weather provider WxWorx announced a new pricing plan offering XM Satellite Weather including national NEXRAD, METARs TFRs and TAFs for the low price of $29.95 per month. This represents a significant drop in the cost of datalink weather for General Aviation.

Control Vision pioneered datalink weather for portable GPS systems with its landmark product, Anywhere Wx. Originally based on the Globalstar satellite network, the Kansas company recently began offering XM Satellite weather as an option. With unlimited weather availability and constant on-line updates, the XM Wx solution presents significant advantages to pilots.

The system consists of an iPAQ Pocket PC, Anywhere Tracker™ Bluetooth GPS, Anywhere Wx and a WxWorx XM Satellite receiver. A Windows® version called Anywhere XP™ delivers Control Vision applications including XM Weather on laptop and tablet PCs.

Control Vision president Jay Humbard said, “We’re very excited about this new pricing plan for XM Satellite Weather. It makes the cost of having high quality weather in G.A. cockpits very compelling and cost-effective. Anywhere Wx with XM weather brings a dimension of safety to flying that you really won’t want to be without.”

Vice President of Engineering, Greg Yotz voiced his enthusiasm. “No question about it, XM Weather is the hottest thing at Airventure. The combination powerful, unlimited-use XM weather combined with the Anywhere Map powerhouse GPS delivers true glass cockpit functionality at a fraction of what companies like Garmin and Avidyne will charge when they begin shipping XM weather systems.”
