Bob, A lot of the middle sized airfields as well as all the large ones have
their own French Meteo man there who is generally extremely helpful. That
apart Ifind the various resource/links at
www.guernseyaeroclub.com/weather.htm to be more than enough. In particular
xc weather, orbifly,Met Office 415, European Tafs & Metars provide most of
what you need on the day and either the USAF, the XC or the NOAA 7day
forecasts are good for planning ahead. One other resource not on the
Guernsey site possibly worth looking at is Jeppesen's one:
www.jeppesen.com/aviation/personal/aviation-weather.jsp In particular I
like the weather depiction page which gives a Europe wide indication of VFR
or various IFR conditions.
Have you by the way found the Europa Club Guide to Flying in Europe
on the Club web site - it has all of the above & a fair bit more.

Subject: Europa-List: RE: Europa- Touring in France
I'm planning on flying to France next week to visit family and friends in
various locations.
Can anyone experienced in French touring recommend a practical source of
aviation weather information while in France please?
I will have iPhone with me, but would prefer to leave the laptop at home.
Thanks.
