What is the FAA (Federal Aviation Administration) MCP Server?

Connect your AI agent to the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) data services to retrieve critical flight safety and weather information through natural language.

What you can do

NOTAM Search — Retrieve Notice to Air Missions (NOTAMs) by location, number, or date to stay informed about airport conditions and hazards.
Flight Restrictions — List active Temporary Flight Restrictions (TFRs) by state or type to ensure compliance with airspace regulations.
UAS & Drone Safety — Access UAS Facility Maps (LAANC) to identify permitted drone operation areas based on geographic coordinates.
Aviation Weather — Fetch real-time Meteorological Aerodrome Reports (METAR) and Terminal Aerodrome Forecasts (TAF) for specific stations.

How it works

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

How can I check for Temporary Flight Restrictions (TFRs) in a specific state?

You can use the list_tfrs tool and provide the two-letter state code (e.g., 'CA' for California). The agent will return a list of all active restrictions and their types.

Can I get both current weather and forecasts for an airport?

Yes. Use get_metar for real-time reports and get_taf for terminal forecasts by providing the ICAO station code (e.g., 'KJFK').

Does this tool help with drone flight planning?

Absolutely. The list_uas_facilities tool provides geographic data for UAS facility maps (LAANC), showing where drone operations are permitted based on your coordinates.

Which VS Code version supports MCP?

MCP support requires VS Code 1.99 or later with the GitHub Copilot extension. Ensure both are updated to the latest version. Older versions of Copilot may not expose the Agent mode toggle.

How do I switch to Agent mode?

Open the Copilot Chat panel and look for two mode options: "Ask" and "Agent". Click "Agent" to enable autonomous tool calling. In Ask mode, Copilot provides conversational answers but cannot invoke MCP tools.

Can I restrict which MCP tools Copilot can access?

Yes. VS Code shows a tool consent dialog before any MCP tool is invoked for the first time. You can also configure tool access policies at the organization level through GitHub Copilot settings.

Does MCP work in VS Code Remote or Codespaces?

Yes. MCP servers configured via .vscode/mcp.json work in Remote SSH, WSL, and GitHub Codespaces environments. The MCP connection is established from the remote host, so ensure the server URL is accessible from that environment.
