METAR in the inflight weather menu

Featured Replies

Hi,

In FS2020 you could check the METARs of the nearest airport by opening the weather menu of the in flight menu bar. In FS2024 this option seems to be gone. Did anyone figure out how to check a metar inflight, without using some external website?

Kind regards

Martin

I came here to ask the same question! Looking in the EFB... weather settings... nowhere can I find the info. Surely it can't be gone completely?

Found it. 

Click on the airport in the map on the EFB. Choose MORE INFO and there is a WEATHER tab. It will have the METAR right there.

Thanks. I knew it had to be somewhere. Not convenient. I thought it would be on the main weather dialog after switching to Live Weather, but that's just me.
