Why the need to manually refresh WX?

Featured Replies

Hi.

 

Why do I manually have to refresh the weather in AS2012 to get the latest WX on descend/landing @ destination airport?

It seems that in 9/10 flights the weather at destination wont load as reported in the METAR until I manually refresh it.

 

The online updates in the settings tab are set to 5min to try to get it better, but still no luck.

Yep, i'm finding this as well. Unless the weather is refreshed it doesn't display the indicated weather when approaching destination.

Something doesn't seem right.

Hopefully an answer will be forthcoming.
