Default iPad Wx?

Hello to all,
Just bought an iPad the other day, and trolling thru the apps I couldn't find the one iPhone Metar/Taf app that I usually use which is called "NavMonster" which I use quite frequently on the phone, but apparently isn't available for the pad yet.

Is anyone using any weather app for the iPad that they would recommend?

Thanks,
Ryan in Madison

Any iPhone app will work on the iPad but if the developer has yet to modify it for the iPad it will show up as a small size in the middle of the iPad screen.

Default Foreflight

I loaded Foreflight on my iPad and it works great. It is a subscription of $25 for 3 months or $75 for a year.

Foreflight is a steal when you consider the data that you get. CONUS plates and VFR charts and IFR low and high enroutes. Plus the weather products are superb.

Thumbs up

I don't know much Apple stuff, but the Navmonster I use is a website, not an app. Just try http://navmonster.com on the ipad.
