2. Flight Service Stations (FSS)
FSSs provide weather briefings, advisories, and other support services to pilots. These services are available via radio or telephone, and pilots can contact the nearest FSS for assistance.
3. Automated Weather Observing Systems (AWOS) and Automated Surface Observing Systems (ASOS)
AWOS and ASOS are automated systems that provide real-time weather observations at airports. Pilots can access this information through dedicated radio frequencies or by using aviation apps.
