aviationapis: POST /flight-category
Get the current flight-rules category (VFR, MVFR, IFR, or LIFR) for an airport by ICAO code, derived from the latest observed ceiling and visibility. Returns the category plus the underlying ceiling (ft) and visibility (statute miles). A compact, decision-ready signal for routing and go/no-go logic.
Start with a quote-only recipe. Payment signing stays in your project.

EVIDENCE
Each record has an exact-route quote outcome. Unresolved templates and potentially mutating methods are labeled instead of being invoked without provider-specific test input. A quote is still separate from a settled paid call.
