3rd MCDU VATSIM Weather Source


AVFC

Recommended Posts

Hello Aerosoft team,

 

One question regarding weather source.

Can I expect to receive VATSIM ATIS weather when VATSIM is selected as weather source?

 

The printout is the same if Hoppie network is selected as weather source on 3rd MCDU. Please see below example.

 

ATSU / AOC Menu / Received Messages:

vPilot ATIS:

P3D 4.5 with A320/A330 with latest update and I use Active Sky (version 7410) as weather engine, with VATSIM online weather enabled.

The weather source does not look for ATIS but the metar. So when the weather source is set to VATSIM, the MCDU will get the metar for you from the VATSIM METAR service.

In most cases these services are in sync with the real world but sometimes there could be outtages where one service has older metar than others.
