Hi Damian and Jim,Am happy with the great progress in the new releases. Yesterday updated to build 140. Have flew for 4 hours (or so) and all went OK. Good visibility and wind transition and good overcast skies (viewed from the spot plane). Congratulations!Have a little problem with METAR of SACO airport. From day 05-AUG-04, I get only TAF for this airport. I know you can do something with this.Thanks for your great support.Regards.Dirk Trotteyn (SANT)

Hi Dirk,Thanks for the report!Just positioned myself at SACO and got the METAR albeit 4 hours old. Then went to: http://weather.noaa.gov/weather/metar.shtmland plugged in the SACO code and got the same 1900Z METAR. So I ask: is it since 05-Aug or is it with archived weather from 05-Aug?Hope this helps,JimActiveSky Supporthttp://www.hifisim.com/images/as2004proudsupporter.jpg

Hi Jim, Thanks for the fast replay.Yes, since 05-AUG with CURRENT D/L weather.I just D/L current weather for 181250Z and NO METAR for SACO. Fetch let you see the METAR for SAOR in place of SACO.This is the string in the 20040818-13z.dat file:SACO::*::SACO 181100Z 181212 18010KT 9999 SCT010 SCT100 BECMG 1820 OVC010Hope this help. Thanks

EDIT:This is the string in the 20040818-13z.dat file:SACO::x::SACO 181100Z 181212 18010KT 9999 SCT010 SCT100 BECMG 1820 OVC010Dirk Trotteyn (SANT)

Dirk,Look to me like SACO is a station that does not report every hour. NOAA still has the 1900Z METAR from last night. AS autogenerated a METAR for me just now so that means no data was on the server. If a station does not report there is not much more we can do!Hope this helps,JimActiveSky Supporthttp://www.hifisim.com/images/as2004proudsupporter.jpg

Hi Jim,I had (5 months ago) a similar situation for SANT (my home airport). And these were the results:http://forums.avsim.net/dcboard.php?az=sho...ing_type=searchSACO is the second important airport of Argentina and is center of weather forecast of half the country. Really a strange behavior for an important weather station like these. Before 05-AUG, I daily had SACO METAR in the fetch. What could happened whit? Thanks for helping me.Regards.Dirk Trotteyn (SANT)

Hi Jim, Good news:Just downloaded Current Weather from 20:00Z and SACO METAR is present again!Regards.Dirk Trotteyn (SANT)
