Hello Windy Community,
I would like to express my deep appreciation for the functionality of the Windy application. As a flight instructor at a flying school in Thailand, I am highly impressed by its capabilities and its immense value as a tool for flight planning.
I am actively seeking effective flight planning solutions that incorporate reliable weather information. Such tools are essential for both initial route planning and in-flight re-planning when weather conditions change. While there are several dedicated aviation applications available, many require expensive subscriptions that can be a significant barrier for student pilots.
To address this, I have developed a plugin for Windy that displays relevant Thailand airspace information, including TMAs, Restricted Areas, and Danger Areas.
Key Features:
Airspace Overlays: Toggle-able layers for all Thai aviation zones with interactive labels.
Custom Route Drawing: A specialized tool to drop waypoints and plan a flight path directly on the map in high-visibility magenta.
GPX Integration: Ability to import pre-planned .gpx routes to visualize them against live weather data.
This provides users with a clear operational overview of their intended flight path, enhancing their ability to anticipate weather impacts and make safer aeronautical decisions. I believe this plugin provides a cost-effective, high-utility solution for the Thai aviation community.
I have published version 1.2.3 to npm and would appreciate your consideration in adding it to the official Windy Plugin Gallery.
Technical Details:
Plugin Name: windy-plugin-thailand-airspace

Best regards,
