Well you wouldn't want to fly somewhere with the fiightplan from your last flight, or what am I missing?

I have been using Flight Plans on every flight, and the weather has been spot on.

I am at FL 320..Using Active Sky Preset, So much for no high altitude clouds.

I seriously doubt if any ATC developer can get good AI control and good ATC operation, both at the same time. It is too much for one program to handle.

I still use PF3 on every flight, and while it doesn't control AI, I have my AI not swamping the airports with traffic, so it doesn't really bother me. PF3 also is updated at least once a year, sometimes more, and it works well for every flight.

The turbulence in AS is much more realistic than the MSFS Turbulence.

The few times I used Historical weather in P3D, was when there was severe weather somewhere, like a snowstorm, or squall line somewhere.Almost never was that in the last 24 hours. The 24 hour thing for me, probably will never be used.

@fppilot, I agree, the weather now with ASFS is excellent.

You have to be kidding, I thought SU15 got rid of that horrible screen.

I think we have enough Airbuses, we need the SU, I want to get rid of the Dune screen....😉

Just read that now they are hoping for the week of May 7.

But the issue as I see it, is most of the Youtube ( I know nothing about the product) reviewers have convinced many viewers that all AS is, is a "Cash Grab" ( using their words in many cases. ) So I have read many comments where the posters said that they heard that AS was not worth buying, after watching reviews on Youtube. That is a shame.

So get ASFS and you won't be restricted to 24 hours. Here is what you get in ASFS Ground snow coverage data is available for the past 10 days only. Tropical storm data is available live and older than 10 days in the past (not available historically within 10 days of present). All other weather data is available, in hourly archives, for the past several years. Some dates/times or data layers may not be available. Coverage, resolution, and availability is subject to change.

I load the flight, the flightplan, set it to Active Sky Preset, and Realism. Good Idea to go over the manual. This program does quite a few things.

Depends on your ATC, and if it will change your approach or departure , if wind shifts at the last minute, which in real life happens. I leave it on prevent , and have for years.
