Live METAR Aviation Weather Map – Backlit Maple Frame

The Live METAR State Map is a handcrafted aviation weather display built for pilots, aviation professionals, and enthusiasts who appreciate both function and form. Each map is made by hand, combining a solid maple hardwood frame with a brushed aluminum aviation chart for a clean, industrial aesthetic.

Airport locations are individually drilled and backlit with precision LEDs that display real-time METAR weather conditions, allowing you to see VFR, MVFR, IFR, and LIFR status at a glance. A floating frame design creates a soft perimeter glow, giving the map depth while subtly illuminating the aluminum surface without overpowering the chart details.

Every unit is assembled, wired, and finished individually, no mass production, no shortcuts. Natural variations in the maple grain ensure that no two maps are exactly alike, making each piece a functional work of art.

Designed to look just as good in a home office or hangar as it does in a flight planning room, this map is both a practical aviation tool and a statement piece.
