April 19, 20242 yr Developers start to embrace ASFS. FSHud has just released a new Beta version with ASFS integration. So now FSHud can be used with ASFS weather - which includes historical weather. Great! Who's next? Edited April 19, 20242 yr by RALF9636

April 19, 20242 yr I'm sure BATC will do the same, the intergration is extremely easy. Just read a file AS automatically creates and feed it into the app instead of the NOAA data. For transparency: I'm a community mentor at the BATC discord. However, I do not get paid for it in any way.

For example it would be nice to get the ASFS (historical) weather in the Fenix too. @Aamir? 😉

I was going to ask Aamir that on the Discord, but figured he'd see it soon enough. A Simbrief flight plan should include everything needed (right?), but checking METAR info from the MCDU will likely need a new endpoint for the data.

It would also automatically send historical wind data to the FMC, if you upload those to Simbrief (via the Simbrief downloader... which in this case actually acts as an uploader), since the Fenix and others get it directly from the Simbrief API. And yes, for METAR they'd have to intercept the weather data ActiveSky injects. Certainly not technically impossible, just a question of how much people ask for it. I have a feeling FBW will be the first to integrate it. And maybe, just maybe, they might also be the first to base their weather radar on ActiveSky (assuming it's technically possible).
