Airport with no METAR information

Featured Replies

Hi,Please try this:Go to an airport with low vis and just sit for a time. Then see if the visibility layer comes in. In FS it is the last portion of the weather graphics that is drawn.Thanks,

I had done some test in varius airport, with extrange results:In airport at sea level or similar like KBOS when they have reduced visibility it works perfect, but when I do test in high altitude airports like SEQU o SKBO it dosnt work, so maybe there ir the problem.Thats my results, maybe you whant to check it yourself.

Hi,OK, thanks!

Hi again, now I have a new problem, I flown from Lima SPIM to La Paz SLLP, the problem was when I approach to La Paz:When approaching to La Paz I got that METAR and the Depiction Ouput Active remain active for all the approach and after lading, that was more than 20 minutes.And La Paz El Alto looks at the moment likethis... where are the clouds and CB?Please find a fix for this!Thanks!

Hi,Is the weather On or Off in SquawkBox?It is normal for the Depiction Output Active to be on.Thanks,

Is off.

OK thanks.I did go to that location and everything was OK. I am not sure what happened when you landed there.Thanks,

Hi again, yesterday I wanted to make a flight in Quito because the airport was close do to bad weather, 2 kilometers of visibility, so I open ASA, and I saw this:Perfect, the METAR is up to date.Then I opened FS and I start flying around Quito in a Embraer 170, and the sim look like this:Look like a normal cloudy day... Then I get mad with ASA :( and I closed it, and magic!There are the two kilometers of visibility!But I opened again ASA and all the fog go away... again...That is my story... I hope you guys can find a fix for it.Bye!
After installing SP1 Beta 2 the problem persist.
