January 5, 200422 yr Happy New Year to all!!Jim and Damian, congratulations on your effort with keeping up with this forum.My question has been addressed in the past by another person in another thread but still in the end I couldn't see any answer. So here it goes again. What is the format of the file wx_station_list.txt? There are some main weather stations missing that I'd like to add manually. Is that possible just by editting this file and complete_airport_list.txt?Best RegardsConnie
January 5, 200422 yr Hi Damian and JimYes I also today noticed when doing a flight LFPG-LGAV that there was no entry for this new Greece Intl Airport.The closest reporting station was LGAD but when I loaded my flight plan into AS2004 my destination weather was given as DGAA, which I think is somewhere in Africa.The AS2004 Nav Log, Route loader showed LFPG-LGAV but detination weather I was given DGAA.I noticed that there is no entry in AS2004 for LGAV but only for LGAT the older airport it replaced a few miles away.Could you please give more insight on this?I am very happy using AS2004 and are achieving good results, just small items like this that needs some clarification.Thanks Jim and Damian.RegardsJannier Regards Jannie Roelofse Flight1 Software Project Manager
January 5, 200422 yr Hi All,Here are the formats of each:Airport List:ICAO,Latitude,Longitude,Altitude in metersWx Station List:ICAO,Latitude,Longitude,Altitude in meters,magnetic variationFor latitudes, negative values are SouthFor longitudes, negative values are WestNow the problem comes in at the server end. If the private server is not pulling any data for stations that you might add, you will not get any data for those stations. A while back Damian explained how the data list on the server was generated, but I can't remember the details, so only Damian can add stations to the server. Feel free to edit your lists, but remember to backup your originals or edit out any non-working stations.Hope this helps,JimActiveSky Support
January 5, 200422 yr Thanks Jim... It seems that LGAV is missing from the server as I have modified the two text files but still no result. Hopefully, Damian can add this station when he can as it is a main airport in Greece.For those who need the data for LGAV, here it goes:Complete_Airport_List.txt:LGAV,37.936,23.945,308Wx_Station_List.txt:LGAV,37.936,23.945,90,3.0(It seems that in the airports' list alt is in feet and in the wx stations' list in meters)

January 6, 200422 yr That is my fault. Tested LPMA and forgot to see LGAV that I suspected something simillar could happen.Jos
