The data

Official sources on both sides of the equator.

FAA and NOAA for the United States, AISWEB, REDEMET and GEOAISWEB for Brazil — the official sources, read at the moment you ask. No copies, no middleman, no stale edition.

4,919: public-use US airports and heliports from the FAA registry
24,053: FAA terminal-procedure charts, airport diagrams included
Live: TFRs swept straight from the FAA feed on every route check
943+: Brazilian aerodromes and helipads from the official ROTAER
750: named visual-corridor points across Brazil’s REA and REH networks
2: countries, one conversation — official sources on both sides

Sources: FAA (NASR, d-TPP, tfr.faa.gov) and NOAA for the US; AISWEB, REDEMET and GEOAISWEB (DECEA) for Brazil.

The app

From “I want to fly tomorrow” to a ready nav log.

Route

In Brazil it flies the published corridors. In the US, honest direct legs.

The planner knows Brazil's published REA and REH visual corridors point by point: entry gates, altitude bands, mandatory direction. For US flights it plans direct legs and analyzes the airspace and active TFRs along them — corridor routing itself exists only in Brazil, because only Brazil publishes these corridors.

Every summary comes with the raw message next to it.

METAR and TAF appear exactly as published — by REDEMET in Brazil, by NOAA in the US — next to the decoded reading. You verify in seconds instead of trusting. SIGMETs, G-AIRMETs and PIREPs join the same read for US flights.

The pedigree

Built where VFR is hardest — now it speaks English.

AeroZulu was born planning Brazil’s published visual corridors: named gates, altitude bands, mandatory directions, point by point. That discipline now reads the US airspace the same way — every direct leg is swept against Class B, C and D, special-use areas and the TFRs active at that moment, with the floors and ceilings quoted from the official data.

The result is a briefing you can fly. “Remain below the 3,000-foot Class B shelf, Republic Tower on 118.8” is how the flight actually goes.

In Brazil this same planner flies the published REA/REH corridors by their charted names — the capability the product was born from.

Trust

Every summary ships with its source attached.

The original message, always

Every METAR and every TAF appears exactly as published, next to the plain-language reading. The summary never replaces the original.

Official sources only

FAA and NOAA for the US — public-domain government data. AISWEB, REDEMET and GEOAISWEB, DECEA’s official services, for Brazil. No middleman and no stale edition.

No number is invented

Frequencies, altitudes, distances and fuel figures come out of a tool or a publication. When the data does not exist, the agent says it does not exist.

Mandatory notice

AeroZulu is not an official source of preflight briefings and is not certified by any aviation authority — ANAC, DECEA or the FAA. It is a planning aid. Always check the official publications — AISWEB and REDEMET in Brazil, FAA and NOAA sources in the US — before flying. The pilot in command retains full legal responsibility for the preparation and conduct of the flight.

FAQ

What pilots ask before subscribing.

Is AeroZulu an official source of preflight briefings?

No. It is an advisory planning tool. It reads the official publications and organizes them into a nav log, which can help you become familiar with the available information before a flight, the way 14 CFR 91.103 requires and AC 91-92 describes for third-party tools — but it is not certified by any aviation authority, and it does not replace the official sources. The pilot in command remains the final authority.

Where does the US data come from?

From official, public US government sources: airport data from the FAA NASR (about 4,900 public-use airports), terminal procedures and airport diagrams from the FAA d-TPP (24,000+ charts), aviation weather — METAR, TAF, SIGMET, G-AIRMET, PIREPs — from NOAA, and live TFRs from tfr.faa.gov.

Does it plan corridor routes in the US?

No. Corridor routing works over the REA and REH visual corridors that Brazil publishes — that is the Brazilian differentiator, and it stays in Brazil. US routes are planned as direct legs, with the airspace along the route analyzed and active TFRs checked.

Can it invent a frequency or an altitude?

The agent's rule is that no number comes from the model: frequencies, altitudes, distances and fuel figures come out of a tool or a publication. When the data does not exist, it says it does not exist instead of estimating — an airport record with no published frequency becomes a warning, not a guess.

Does it file flight plans?

No — neither in Brazil nor in the US. It drafts the plan for you to review, but filing stays with the official channels and the services you already use.

How is it priced and billed?

Plans are priced in Brazilian reais (BRL) and billed through the app stores — the product launched in Brazil, and the store subscriptions are the same for every user. Cancel anytime through the store.

Does it work offline?

No. Data is fetched at the moment you ask, because NOTAMs and METARs change constantly — a briefing saved from yesterday would be worse than none. The exported GPX, though, stays on your phone.

Your next briefing takes a minute.

Ask, check the sources, export the GPX — with official FAA, NOAA and DECEA data.
