Turn the morning weather call into a reschedule action list
Every morning before launch, WebRun opens TripWorks, reads today's flights and passenger counts, checks the local surface wind, gusts, and cloud outlook, and posts your pilot a Telegram go or no-go briefing with a ready action list of which flights to fly and which to reschedule.

How do I automatically turn the morning weather call into a reschedule list?
Each morning before launch, WebRun reads today's balloon flights in TripWorks and the local wind, gust, and cloud outlook, then posts your pilot a Telegram go or no-go briefing. It flags flights that fall outside your thresholds with the affected passengers and suggested slots, so the pilot makes fast, informed reschedule calls before dawn.
- Pilot gets a wind-aware go or no-go picture before first light
- Scrubbed flights come with the affected passengers and open slots ready
- The flight decision stays with the pilot, no booking is changed automatically
Built for hot air balloon operators · balloon pilots · chief pilots · flight operations teams

Questions, answered
Does it cancel or reschedule flights on its own?
No. It gives your pilot a go or no-go briefing and a suggested reschedule list, but the flight decision and any booking change stay with a human. Nothing is moved in TripWorks automatically.
Does it message passengers about a scrub?
No. This run is an internal Telegram briefing for the flight team only. Once the pilot confirms a no-go, you can reach affected passengers through your own drafted-and-approved messaging flow.
How does it decide fly versus no-go?
It compares the local surface wind, gusts, and visibility for each launch window against the fly or no-fly thresholds you set. The final call always rests with the pilot in command, who can override any suggestion.
