Windsock

Combined current weather (METAR) and forecast (TAF) for an airport by ICAO/ident — for trip planning context.

get_airport_weather

Historical actuals and optional forward forecast (with 75/95/99% confidence bands) for a named market metric, optionally scoped to an aircraft segment. Provides market context to complement individual valuations.

get_market_metric

Historical valuation snapshots for a watchlisted tail (dated value points). Use for value trends, portfolio appreciation/depreciation, and collateral monitoring over time.

get_tracked_aircraft_snapshots

ML fill-in for missing airframe, engine, and condition fields (SMOH, AFTT, interior/exterior quality, etc.) before a valuation. Identify the aircraft by registration or make_model_id; any fields you supply are preserved. Quality scores use a 1–10 scale.

impute_aircraft_specs

Aircraft segment keys (e.g. single_engine_piston) used to scope market metrics. Pass a key as the `category` argument to get_market_metric.

list_market_categories

Catalog of macro GA market metrics Windsock tracks (stable identifiers, labels, units, and whether each supports forecasting). Discover valid metric names before calling get_market_metric.

list_market_metrics

List the tails on your watchlist with their latest tracking state.

list_tracked_aircraft

Canonical FAA registry + distilled aircraft profile for an N-number. Returns structured aircraft data plus make_model_id and avionics_ids — the IDs needed downstream for valuation and reference lookups. The first step in any "value this tail" workflow.

lookup_aircraft

Search FAA Airworthiness Directive records, optionally filtered by make_model_id and compliance status. For pre-buy AD review, maintenance planning, and appraisal compliance sections.

search_airworthiness_directives

Text search over FAA make/model names, returning make_model_id values needed by value_aircraft, impute_aircraft_specs, and reference lookups. Use to resolve "2015 Cirrus SR22" to a canonical id when no tail number is available.

search_make_models

Search STC records, optionally filtered by make_model_id — certificate numbers, descriptions, applicability. For pre-buy due diligence and documenting mods that affect value.

search_stcs

Search avionics equipment names/types, returning avionics_ids that affect equipment-adjusted valuations. Use to map panel/upgrade text to canonical ids.

search_avionics

Semantic/hybrid search over digitized aircraft logbook entries across reports you can access. Each hit includes date, summary, OCR text, extracted fields, and page ids for citation. Scope to a report with report_id.

search_logbooks

Registry-wide aircraft search — the fleet / market-research search surface. Returns individual registered tails matching an AND-combined filter set (make/model, US state, city, year, tail number, on-market status, or geographic radius), with pagination and sorting. Resolve a model name to a make_model_id with search_make_models first. For population totals (e.g. "how many R182s in Oregon") prefer count_aircraft, which avoids paging. Each filter is {field_name, condition, value}.

search_aircraft

Paginated search over appraisal/valuation reports your account can access. Filter by registration, year, make_model_id, price bounds, and whether logbooks are attached.

search_reports

Add a tail to your portfolio watchlist for recurring valuation snapshots and change monitoring. Requires make_model_id and aircraft_info.year; registration identifies the tail.

track_aircraft

Machine-generated aircraft market value at a single point in time, from today back to 1960. Provide a tail number OR a full spec (make_model_id + aircraft_info). Optional as_of_date selects the contemporary model (>= 2020-01-01 or omitted) or the deep-history longitudinal model (before 2020). Set include=["explanation"] or ["uncertainty"] for richer output. The flagship valuation tool.
