PART IV: COMMENTS/REMARKS SECTION

This section provides space for miscellaneous information concerning any portion of the flight

(Figure 4-8). Remarks include any significant details or data not covered elsewhere and deemed

pertinent, such as low-level wind shear, and runway conditions. When applicable and available,

the latest braking action code will be given in Block 31. Weather personnel may request that you

make a PIREP for a specific location along your route of flight where data is unavailable through

other means. If so, the appropriate location, type weather, and METRO frequency will be listed

in Block 32. Amplifying remarks on any WWs, SIGMETs, AIRMETs, or similarly issued

warnings or advisories are required in Block 33. The latest hourly surface observation for the

destination may also be included here. If space is a problem, an additional DD 175-1 will be

used as a continuation sheet.
