Note for PMDG 737 MSFS users

[srcooke 439]

In order for the Weather uplink function to work the exported route file should be in the format ICAOICAO only and not have the numeric suffix.

 

This is a change from previous PMDG products.

I suggest posting this in the forum sections for MSFS,

Additionally to the numeric suffix issue there are end-of-line tabs in the PFPX weather export that can prevent loading.

 

These can be removed by editing the file with Notepad++ and using the find and replace function:
