C3 Glide

Get live aviation data for pilots. Ask questions about METARs, TAFs, NOTAMs for flight planning.

C3 Glide is a plugin that provides pilots with live aviation data through a chat interface. The plugin can retrieve surface observations and predictive atmospheric conditions for a particular airfield or reporting station, as well as reports detailing special events or conditions affecting airport and flight operations. The geographic location(s) or reporting station(s) can be represented using ICAO and IATA airport codes or latitude and longitude coordinates. C3 Glide can also retrieve NOTAMs with different codes that specify the type of information being requested. Pilots can supply a date and/or time for their request and get the relevant data in UTC. With C3 Glide, pilots can get the information they need for flight planning with ease.

Learn how to use C3 Glide effectively! Here are a few example prompts, tips, and the documentation of available commands.

Example prompts

  1. Prompt 1: "What's the current weather at Los Angeles International Airport?"

  2. Prompt 2: "Give me the forecast for JFK Airport for tomorrow."

  3. Prompt 3: "Are there any NOTAMs affecting flights at Heathrow?"

  4. Prompt 4: "Get me the METAR and TAF reports for San Francisco International Airport."

  5. Prompt 5: "Is there any NOTAM information for Chicago O'Hare Airport?"

Features and commands

Feature/CommandDescription
retrieveMETARsThis command retrieves the METAR reports, which are surface observations of weather conditions, for one or more specific airport locations. You need to provide the airport codes or geographic coordinates.
retrieveTAFsThis command retrieves the TAF reports, which are predictive atmospheric conditions, for one or more specific airport locations. You need to provide the airport codes or geographic coordinates.
retrieveNOTAMsThis command retrieves the NOTAM reports, which detail special events or conditions affecting airport and flight operations, for one or more specific airport locations. You need to provide the airport codes or geographic coordinates, as well as the letter code specifying the type of NOTAM (X, A, C, F, I, or O).
setDateTimeThis command allows you to specify a start and end date and time for your request in UTC format. You need to provide the date and time values using the format: 2021-12-07T16:37:00Z. This is optional, and if not provided, the current UTC date and time will be used.

DescriptionC3 Glide retrieves live aviation data including METARs, TAFs, and NOTAMs for pilots. C3 Glide can retrieve METARs. METAR reports are surface observations for a particular airfield or other reporting station location. C3 Glide can retrieve TAFs. TAF reports are predictive atmospheric conditions for an area within five nautical miles of a particular airfield or other reporting station location. C3 Glide can retrieve NOTAMs. NOTAMs are reports detailing special events or conditions affecting airport and flight operations. These can include, but are not limited to runway closures, lack of radar services, rocket launches, hazard locations, airspace restrictions, construction updates, and unusual aircraft activity. The user provides one or more geographic locations, or reporting stations to retrieve the relevant live aviation data products. The geographic location(s), or reporting station(s) must be represented by ICAO airport codes (KJFK, EGLL, PHNL), IATA airport codes (MIA, LGA, HNL), and/or latitude and longitude coordinates (30.35,-81.013). Combined they can be represented as such: LEX;KATL;30.2,-82.1;KMCO. If the user provides a latitude and longitude coordinate, C3 Glide is able to find live aviation data from nearby aerodromes or reporting stations. The type(s) of live aviation data products best suited to the user’s requests are retrieved, including one or more of the following: METARs, TAFs, and/or NOTAMs. If NOTAMs are fetched, the NOTAM code must be specified as one of the following letters depending on the user query: 'X' for All NOTAMs. 'A' for Airspace, Control Zones, ADIZ, Air Traffic Procedures, SID, STARs, Air Traffic Services, Airspace Restrictions, VOLMET Services, Navigation Warnings, Terminal and Enroute Navigation Facilities, Navigation Beacons, Volcanic Activity, Unmanned Aircraft, and GNSS Services. 'C' for Communications, SELCAL, Radar, and Surveillance. 'F' for Facilities, Services, Firefighting Services, Fuel, Runways, Runway Surface Conditions, Aprons, Parking Areas, Taxiways, Lighting, Movement and Landing Areas. 'I' for Instrument Approach Procedures, and Minimums. 'O' for Obstacles, and Cranes. The user can supply a date and/or time for their request, which must be converted to UTC using the following format: 2021-12-07T16:37:00Z. The user date and/or time is captured as a period with a start, and end value. If a date and/or time is not supplied, the current UTC date and time is used.
