jMitchell, This has happened to me. Seems as if it has some odd thing happen with the key presses on atc. The ATC window has to be open when the keypresses happen and sometimes, those keypresses don't seem to work.

I assume that there is local weather then but I do not get the local weather? greetings, Mitchel 2013/9/9, Mitchel Snel <brailletijger@xxxxxxxxx>:dear Robert, sorry that I move into this topic but if I ask michel 2013/9/9, Robert Cezar <robert@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>:The METAR data comes from the United States NOAA service located here: http://aviationweather.gov/ I would suggest that you direct your questions to them directly. Please let me know what they say.

I pulled two reports, one for kphx (Phoenix Sky Harbor) and one for KLIT (Little Rock). I pulled klit twoce actually. Both reports from kphx and klit were correct as far as conditions, but the time reported was 0914. a 31 C temperature at 3 A>M. in Little Rock is probably not completely correct. I pulled KLIT a second time with a flight loaded to Little Rock. That time, I got a 0915 Zulu time, and a temperature of 32. Is there a problem with the scrape of the new metar data?

Here's a good link that describes METAR in detail: http://weather.cod.edu/notes/metar.html Regards, Robert On Mon, Sep 9, 2013 at 6:32 AM, Noel Romey <nromey@xxxxxxxxx> wrote:I'm making out. Have found a few cosmetic if you will bugs which I will compile and send privately. When I ask to check weather for a location the conditions seem to be ok but Zulu Time doesn't update much. Does the new service for metar not update often or is there some other problem? Thanks Ner On Sep 8, 2013, at 4:08 PM, Robert Cezar <robert@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>wrote:Hi, How are you making out?

It was not muted unfortunately. MS Speech Recognition took my sneeze as a keypress. two things happened in succession. First, I should say, these keypresses were on the FSX side, not the IYP Michelle side of things. First, the autopilot got turned off and second, my engine mixture was set to lean. I dropped from 1000 to nothing in about 10 seconds. Didn't know what happened because I didn't know what I pressed, so I thought fist to set engine mixture to rich, well I said lean, so I ultimately pulled back up to about 4000 feet, then fell back. In essence, FSX was confused. Finally got things dialed back in, and got up to 10300 feet and climbing, aTC yelling at me that I was above my altitude. That's when I found that autopilot got turned off. I would have started over because in real life, I would have been exploded into bits on the middle of frontier Canada, but I flew the flight last night and on approach, lost all FSX sound (nothing I could do to get it back either), so II just continued flying. I've got FSX set to not allow for crashes for some reason apparently under realism (I had not idea that could be set). Luckily for me, I'm save in Fort St. John. Another note, upon landing, I got to 100 feet and the wind blew me up so I was a few feet from the ground but not landed and I didn't hear a bump or crash sound. So I pulled up (execute go around didn't work for some reason) flew a while and then prepared to land at the runway. Autopilot was on again again so I turned it off, did approach checklist again, and was able to land. I think that crosswinds caused problems for me, so when I came back the second time, they weren't as significant so Michelle was able to help. This is going to be a challenging trip.
