Hello Active Sky team!I still notice that winds-aloft servers don't work already since a couple of weeks! Can you make a prediction on when this will be fixed?Greetings,Hakan

Hi,On Tuesday the server was working for a time I and thought things were fixed. You can write NOAA and ask when their server will be fixed. I have not heard anything!Hope this helps,JimActiveSky Supporthttp://www.hifisim.com/images/as2004proudsupporter.jpg

don't get me wrong, i don't want to put the blame on you. It stands for quality that the programm uses NOAA-data, but on the other hand I don't wanna bug NOAA with "important" things like "gaming-waether". But your idea is good, maybe you have a web-adress for contacting them so that I don't have to search a long time for the right person to contact? (will publish results inthis forum, if successful)greetings,Hakan

Thx for the address, I tried it out just right after but no reply so far, I am sorry!Greetings,Hakan

Hi Hakan,Are you still getting errors? I tried Friday and had winds aloft data and just tried again and got a good result.For everyone: Damian has been aware of the server problems and is working on a fix. I'll leave the details for him to share, when things are ready.Hope this helps,JimActiveSky Supporthttp://www.hifisim.com/images/as2004proudsupporter.jpg

Hello Jim!I am sorry, but yes! But I must admitt that I do testing without FS running, just to save loading time...but I get no winds aloft, still reads "xxx not availiable". Maybe this is because I have FS not running? I tried it also with FS running as usual with no result!On the other hand: I tried FSBuilt2 (Flightplanner using AktiveSky winds aloft data) and worked out an atlantic flight and it successfully incorporated winds_aloft data, maybe there's something wrong with my system? I think about uninstalling and re-installing AS!Anyway, thx for replying.Greetings,Hakan

No, I just tried and got no winds either. That darn server is not working again. Again, Damian is aware and is working on a possible fix.Hope this helps,JimActiveSky Supporthttp://www.hifisim.com/images/as2004proudsupporter.jpg

Hi there, there haven't been any posts on this for a while so I've got the problem that I don't know if the absence of winds aloft in my sim is due to my system or a continuing server problem. Is the server still down?Would it be possible to have some kind of indicator somewhere, so that we might know when there is a server problem or not? (:) If there already is such an indicator, then would someone mind pointing me in the right direction?)Thanks,Tom

That's a good idea!Last time I fly (2 days ago), I had consistent aloft data, however, the briefing screen was still showing "winds aloft not avail", so I don't know if it's because I fly outside USA or if there's no data avail,I pass this question on...Greetings,Hakan

Hi All,Please see my pinned topic about the wxRE update because it should make this a moot point.I can check NOAA if the whole weather system goes down, but not just the winds as far as I know.The wx Briefing screen is still going to show no data avail.Hope this helps,JimActiveSky Supporthttp://www.hifisim.com/images/as2004proudsupporter.jpg
