PFPX server switch

Featured Replies

PFPX has relocated to a new server.

Current issues should resolve in the coming days.

Steve.

 

Thank you for the update Steve.
That explains why it hasn´t updated the weather ect. the last couple of days.

Best regards

@srcooke
Do you know if all should be working again?.
The reason why I am asking is the wind data don´t seem to update, the last I got is 29AUG-01OCT. Metar works.

Best regards

METAR & TAF look to be ok but as you mention WAFC and Tracks are outdated. Tracks could be switched to manual mode and pasted in if required.

I'll follow up with the dev at the end of week.

Any news thus far, Stephen?

I sent a followup email on Friday afternoon regarding the WAFC and Track issues that remain, not heard back as yet.

Stephen.

Fingers crossed 🫰

About every quarter when the servers are out of service I'm so afraid they don't come back.

In the meantime - anyone know how to use the wx2pfpx to program?

Mainly in regard to forecasts - I am not sure if downloading forecasts for the duration of a long-haul flight, say, will help PFPX used those forecasts?

You can only use a single forceast, I have used a time mid-point with satisfactory results regarding flight fuel burn using the enhanced grid function.

 

Wind aloft and Tracks are back online 😀

Thanks Stephen for your efforts

God bless PFPX
