Dear Aviation Weather customer:

 

In 61 days, after 1300 UTC on 17 May 2005, the National Weather Service will use new communication header designations to disseminate operational aviation forecasts and warnings.  This change is required to comply with the World Meteorological Organization and International Civil Aviation Organization standards for international air navigation.

If you rely on the communication header information to access or process these products, this change will affect your ability to use these products after 17 May 2005 unless you make necessary changes to ensure the receipt or proper processing of this information.  

See http://aviationweather.gov/notice/ for details regarding this change, and for a complete list of old and new headers.

Please reply to address@hidden if you have any questions.
