Since I'm not aware of a net.flying news group this appears to be the
only place to post the following request.

If there are any general aviation pilots out there that have run across 
any public domain software (for execution on Unix System 3 or 5 based VAX
systems) that will allow a link to National Weather Service computers 
and/or any other privately owned weather information services, I'd really 
appreciate hearing about it.  I'm aware of the existence of software 
packages made available for the various PCs on the market that allow this 
sort of thing, but, since I do not own a PC, I've not done any in-depth 
investigation into the types of operating systems they run under and
exactly what capabilities you get with them. The fact that the packages
exist indicates that there are services to hook into; hopefully such
software exists for us VAX users as well.

If response is good I'll post replies back to the net.

thanks,
