Viewing weather map in flight

Featured Replies

Hi all,I currently use ActiveSky 6.5 for my real word weather but have the problem that I do not know what weather to expect during flight. I have seen ASE offers weather maps although i am not sure if they are available during flight. I also fly using the VC rather than the 2D panel view.It would be useful to be able to view an updating weather map to avoid storms and bad weather etc... i have seen that Captain Sim do a weather gauge but it only works in 2D cabins views.Can anyone suggest an add-on for checking the weather situation in FS2004?

ASE allows you to add a gauge that can do that, or if you prefer, Flight Keeper's ACARS gauge can be added to a cockpit to give your aircraft that kind of capability. Personally, I prefer the Flight Keeper ACARS gauge, but it's a matter of personal preference.Al

Hi,Through AS you can print out the weather conditions at each waypoint along your route. You could also use the weather Radar that is included with ASv6.5.

Hi,Can you explain what you mean when you refer to a weather radar in AS6.5?Thanks

Hi,While in a flight in FS9 if you go to the Flights menu at the top of the screen you should have something called Active Radar with a shortcut of Ctrl/F12. It is a pop-up window. Don't look for it in your AS program. It is in the documentation and everything!
