Abdul123 6 Posted August 31, 2021 Share Posted August 31, 2021 Excuse me! Wanted to ask does pfpx come with a weather satellite to help avoid thunderstorms when planning flight plans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deputy Sheriffs masterhawk 799 Posted August 31, 2021 Deputy Sheriffs Share Posted August 31, 2021 There are some 3rd party weather informations and sat imgages available. Also the tool can load the weather data from active sky for example. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Abdul123 6 Posted August 31, 2021 Author Share Posted August 31, 2021 Yes but cant seem see the rain on the pfpx tool like other flight planning tools. I tried to add active sky to pfpx but it only shows jet stream wind direction terrain. But no rain info or hurricane info on the pfpx map. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ClaudeF 0 Posted September 1, 2021 Share Posted September 1, 2021 PFPX uses two files created by Active Sky, "current_wx_snapshot.txt" and "wx_station_list.txt". Presume you have pointed PFPX to the folder where ASN keeps these files. However, PFPX does not convert this information into anything you can "see" in the World Map. It does include a text of the weather for airports included in a flight plan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
