Narrative:
Can you get the phone AWOS back on line at manassas (hef)? This is so critical to pilots that fly in and out of the airport. I am based there with an aircraft in the hangar. The phone is the fastest and easiest way to get quick information; trends; and changing conditions. It would be a great help to all that fly to/from this airport.
