July 9, 200520 yr I am a new user to this program. With only a few flights I am enjoying it. However, today at 10:40 am PST I tried to set up a flight using ASV.here is the metar from ASVKTPA 060153Z 35005KT 10SM BKN250 28/23 A3007 RMK AO2 SLP180 T02830228at the same time here is the NOAA metar (http://weather.noaa.gov/cgi-bin/mgetmetar.pl)KTPA 091453Z 09010G15KT 070V160 10SM FEW030 SCT080 BKN130 OVC250 26/21 A2988 RMK AO2 RAB01E23 SLP118 P0000 60002 T02560206 58019look at the date/time group, is there really a 3 day lag on the ASV servers or am I not reading this correctly?

July 9, 200520 yr Mike,Do you have Online Updates enabled in the Options tab of ASV? I just tried your flight and this is what I got:KTPA 091853Z 11014G21KT 10SM -RA SCT028 OVC055 24/21 A2985 RMK AO2 PK WND 13028/1800 SLP107 P0019 T02390211
July 9, 200520 yr Author no, I turned that off because I do not want ASV to update wx during my flight. I only want it to get it when I either start ASV or when I process my flightplan.In other words, I need it to update wx on my demand only (i.e. not every 10 minutes). After reading the manual I assumed toggling this feature off would do just that, inhibit updates.

July 10, 200520 yr Hi Mike,Starting ASV in Offline Mode will never download the current weather. You need to use the Download button and choose Current weather.
