Which settings to simulate Wellington's famous weather

Featured Replies

Wellington in New Zealand is famed for its ghastly winds (look here:

). What settings do I have to choose in ASVv6.5 to have those weather effects in my Sim? The current METAR for NZWN is NZWN 281900Z 20031KT 9999 FEW018 SCT025 08/05 Q1009 WS R16 TEMPO 6000 SHRA RMK KAUKAU 19040KTSo the winds are strong, but it looks in FS as if this was a steady wind rather than the gusts and crosswinds that are typical for Wellington.Thus: what to click, what to uncklick? in ASv6.5? In FSUIPC?

Hi,That METAR is showing a strong wind, but no gusts. Crosswinds depend on your runway not on any weather data. If the winds are coming from different directions, then the variable winds code would be used and it is not being used either.In FSUIPC use Default settings and Weather settings off, for good results.In AS, Default Settings are a good place to start.Thanks!
