CDU METAR REQUEST problem

[dcutugno]

I discoverd that when i request the metar for an airport the first time it's retrieved, but i cannot request metar for another airport.

Are you ruining PM Getweather? If you are not, you will not get the report.

I'm not using PMgetweather, but i get the first report ok, it seems that subsequent report can't be inserted on the CDU it is stuck with first report on screen!

Note: Online flying with SB3

Without PMGetweather or wazzup, you will not get the reports. Sorry that is just the way it works.

Hi Bob,

No it should not, but then neither should any METAR show up in the initial start up screen, i tried last a test without running PMWX and got no WX what so ever on start up..

Hi peter. I too sometimes get one for the departing AP only on start up but not always. Try typing in something other then the departure AP for initial check, and I think what you will get will still be the departing AP. Like i said i do not know where the first one comes from.
