Live aviation data for AI agents: METAR weather, airports, aircraft, glossary & FAA questions.

VerifiedStreamable HTTPWeb executableLocation & LifestyleKnowledge & Memory

Overview

AI-generated overview

A remote MCP server giving AI assistants live aviation data: METAR weather, airport and aircraft details, a glossary, and FAA-style practice questions.

What you can do
Look up current decoded METAR weather for an ICAO airport, including flight category, wind, visibility and temperature, with an optional TAF forecast. Retrieve airport details by ICAO code: name, IATA code, city, country, coordinates, elevation and runways. Fetch aircraft specifications such as engines, seats, range, cruise speed, ceiling, MTOW and type rating. Look up aviation glossary terms with related terms. Get FAA-style practice exam questions filtered by subject, plus a daily quiz question.
When to use it
Useful for pilots, students and aviation enthusiasts who want an assistant to check current weather at an airport, compare aircraft specs, explain aviation terminology, or run practice quiz questions without leaving the chat.
Requirements
The hosted endpoint is a remote streamable HTTP server that requires OAuth authentication and an Apify token in the connection URL. The README also describes a local option run through npx over stdio, which it says needs no signup or token. Network access is required.
Before you install
The hosted version is billed per tool call, so usage costs money and requires an Apify account and token. The token is passed in the connection URL, so treat that URL as a secret. Data comes from a third-party aviation API; weather is live but airport, aircraft and glossary data is curated reference material and should not be relied on for operational flight decisions.

Installation

In SourceWeft

  1. Open Aviation Mcp in the dashboard and add it to a workspace.
  2. Connect the required credentials. They are stored privately and never shown on public pages.
  3. Enable the server for the chats that should use its tools.

Web executable via Streamable HTTP. Remote servers run from the web runtime once configured in a workspace.

Other MCP clients

Follow the launch instructions in the repository.

README

Aviation MCP Server ✈️

[aviation-mcp MCP server]

Give your AI agent live aviation data. Connect this MCP server to Claude Desktop, ChatGPT, Cursor, Cline, Continue, or Windsurf and your assistant can pull real METAR weather, airport info, aircraft specs, an aviation glossary, and FAA-style practice questions — on demand.

Powered by the free Rotate Pilot aviation API. No API keys to wrangle, no signup — just connect and go.

Tools (6)

ToolWhat it does
get_metarCurrent decoded METAR for any ICAO airport — flight category (VFR/MVFR/IFR/LIFR), wind, visibility, temp, dewpoint. Optional TAF.
get_airportAirport info by ICAO — name, IATA, city, country, coordinates, elevation, runways.
get_aircraftAircraft specs by slug — engines, seats, range, cruise, ceiling, MTOW, type rating.
get_glossary_termDefinition of an aviation term (e.g. squawk, v-speeds) with related terms.
practice_questionsFAA-style practice exam questions with options + correct answer. Filter by subject.
quiz_of_the_dayThe aviation question of the day.

Example prompts

  • "What's the current weather at KJFK and is it VFR?"
  • "Pull the specs for a Cessna 172 and a Piper Warrior and compare cruise speed and range."
  • "Give me 3 FAA meteorology practice questions and quiz me."
  • "What does the squawk code 7700 mean?"

Connect it

Option A — run it yourself (free, no key)

json
{  "mcpServers": {    "aviation": {      "command": "npx",      "args": ["-y", "@renzom13/aviation-mcp"]    }  }}

That's it — npx pulls the package and starts the server over stdio. No signup, no token. Data comes from the free Rotate Pilot API.

Option B — hosted (zero-setup, pay-per-use)

For a managed, always-on endpoint with nothing to install, use the Apify-hosted version:

json
{  "mcpServers": {    "aviation": {      "url": "https://renzomacar--aviation-mcp.apify.actor/mcp?token=YOUR_APIFY_TOKEN"    }  }}

Get a free Apify token at console.apify.com/account/integrations. Legacy SSE clients can use /sse instead of /mcp. Hosted calls are billed per tool call.

Pricing

Pay-per-use: a small charge per tool call (no subscription, no minimum). You only pay for the data your agent actually pulls.

Data & attribution

All data comes from the free Rotate Pilot aviation API (docs · OpenAPI spec), built by a commercial pilot. Weather is live; airport/aircraft/glossary data is curated reference data.

This server asks for a credential such as an API key, so SourceWeft could not read its tools without one and has not indexed them.
