  1. Have you applied the B655 update? See topic "ASE SP4 Beta Available" above. This solved the same problem for me.....RegardsNeil
  2. Surface winds and temperatures all OK now at regional airfields - thank you Damian, for your support. RegardsNeil
  3. Hi Damian Same here - install of B650 not updating from B649...... RegardsNeil
  4. Hi Damian The Beta B649 update has certainly improved the surface wind problem that was being experienced at regional airports around New Zealand - no longer do we see zero surface winds only but a realistic representation of the actual surface wind for these smaller airfields. Surface temperature is still aproblem however, generally being 10-20 deg C lower than it should be causing snow conditions on occasions where there should be no snow!!! Thank you for your continued support.... RegardsNeil
  5. This problem has been around for a while and discussed previously. See the thread in this forum "Surface Weather unreliable at Regional Airports" dated 19 March 2011 and Jim's reply on the 20 March
  6. Thanks Jim, for your very quick response. Are we likely to see a new version of AS in the foreseeable future that will overcome this limitation?CheersNeil
  7. This topic was the subject of discussion on this forum several months ago but as far as I am aware no solution was ever offered. The problem is surface winds and temperature at regional airports in New Zealand (and to a lesser extent, Australia) as depicted in ASE (Build 645). Major airports of NZAA, NZWN and NZCH and minor airports in their close vicinity depict correct surface conditions but airfields outside these areas (about 85% of all NZ airfields) typically show the surface wind of 225 Degrees at 0 Knots and the temperature 10-15 degrees lower than it should be. ASV 6.5 (Build 533) does not have this problem. Examples of conditions at 192140Z are:NZWB WoodbourneASEWind 225/00 Temp 9.8/5.8ASV6.5 (NZWN closest station)Wind 360/10 Temp 18/13NZDN DunedinASEWind 225/00 Temp -4.3/-7.8ASV6.5 (NZCH closest station)Wind 230/05 Temp 13/13NZGS GisborneASEWind 225/00 Temp 2.3/-1.3ASV6.5 (NZOH closest station)Wind 310/01 Temp 20/16Other weather parameters are always correct and apart from this particular problem ASE is a great program and enhancement for FSX.I had anticipated that this problem would have been resolved with Service Pack 2 but unfortunately this was not the case. My question is, can this condition be corrected or is it just a limitation of the program that we will have to live with?RegardsNeil Wright
  8. ........and at many other regional airfieds in New Zealand. Unfortunately, SP1 did not fix the problem.Neil
  9. Hi TeamI was hoping this problem would be fixed when ASE was released but unfortunately not. Winds at regional airfields around New Zealand still invariably show as 225 deg at 0 knots and the temperature about 15 deg lower than it should be. Weather at main airports is correctly shown.CheersNeil
  10. Hi JohnYes, the wind direction is always showing as 225 Deg 0 Knots at these airports - I upgraded from ASV 6.5 to ASA on 1 June 2009 and I am sure the problem has been there from the start. ASV 6.5 did not have this problem.CheersNeil
  11. I have experienced the same problems with surface winds at regional airports in New Zealand. The temperature is also incorrect at these airports
