Visibility and haze question

[jcmissionary 6]

First off, I just want to say how impressed I am with this product. Having held off buying it because of the current US Dollar-Euro situation, I finally bought ActiveSky 2004.5 today. I do have a little question concerning the visibility and haze, though. For example, the first flight I loaded up was one that takes off from my home airport of KLGU. At the time, the metar was reading 8 SM visibility and clear skies. After this was processed, I had a fog/haze layer that gave 8 miles visibility, but it also gave a grey sky/overcast view. I read through the manual, and tried a search here to see if this has come up before, and it seems it hasn't. If it has, I apologize.My settings are all default, and I cleared the weather using FSUIPC beforehand. Any help anyone could give me would be appreciated. Thanks!

Hi JC,Thanks for your purchase! One thing to do is update your version to B163, which you can find the the top of this forum. Part of this may be that FS draws clouds to adjust for visibility so lower visibility and clear skies do not always agree. Update and then see if this event continues to happen.Hope this helps,JimActiveSky Supporthttp://www.hifisim.com/images/as2004proudsupporter.jpg
