So Metservice is going to charge for the MetFlight service.
Currently it's free and all you need is a logon password.
Admittedly I very rarely refer to the MetFlight service as the NOAA T-phi graphs and RASP are far more relevant to gliding. So it'll be no loss to me...
CAA claim it will save $100,000 per year.
I could suggest there are far better ways for CAA to save $100k per year. Dropping this whole Part 115 review would be a good place to start. Not only has this flawed process cost Gliding NZ plenty of time and money but CAA have been at this for 5 years or more...with no end in sight. Remember these are the highly intelligent bureaucrats who wanted us to carry an axe and fire extinguisher in a glider...cos we persist in carrying those highly explosive pee bags with us...
And let's not start on Airways...
