How to find out weather at arrival point?

Featured Replies

Ok - so I am at my departure point and I download real weather -- I can then easily see what the weather conditions are, but how do I know what the conditions are at my arrival point. The problem with FS2004 weather is that you are flying along VFR and then suddenly , bingo! , you are in zero vis as the weather machine hands you over to the next station. It would be nice to know before departure whether I should create an IFR plan .Any ideas please?Thanks Barry

I then go into the User Defined Weather - Customized Weather tab. I can then follow the flight plan on the map and see the expected weather by clicking on the weather stations along the route. By going into the Advanced tab, as appropriate, I can investigate further. This gives me a good prediction of what will actually happen in FS 2004 for my flight. But since FS 2004 weather is dynamic, the element of uncertainty remains - which is fine.I have to say that the "Bingo" effect has happened to me flying for real in the UK (quite exciting actually, but frightening too). I have not experienced Bingo in WA though!Hope this helps, it works for me.Michael
