It would be nice if there was some sort of backup server for the realtime weather data. (Especially if FSX will be using the same server that FS9 does.) I know the server info is in the FS9.cfg and assuming FSX will do things similarly, it would be nice if you could just edit the config file (or load a new profile?) and change it from fs2k.zone.com to, say, fsx.zone.com (or vice versa) when the main weather server goes down. (Like it is now.) :)"Let me help you out. You're cleared to taxi any way you can to any runway you see."

You can certainly change the URL now--but's there's only one server. We probably won't add any servers ourselves (when they are running the server load is very managable from a volume standpoint). We might look at documenting the protocol, though, which would allow third-parties to host their own servers.

<Probably not. We don't like to rely on file formats for the SDK since it makes it harder to change them.
