Hi Everyone! In the mission from ISSUE #82 I've noticed that only temperature is read. No weather information nor visibility

.

I am adding the mission and the DATIS.log.

Thanks! Sir Abu Nuayr Crisis 03.zip

Thanks for the report! Cloud and visibility information are only included in the report if there are any clouds or any visibility restrictions. I am not claiming that this is the way it is done most of the time in RL, so if you have a good source of how it is done in RL in such a case, please let me know.

HI! Thanks for the info. I honestly am no expert at all but we have one civil flight controller in my squad. I'll ask and I'll get back to you. In the following link you have more info while I get the first hand info. https://www.skybrary.aero/index.php/Automatic_Terminal_Information_Service_(ATIS)

Thanks!

Hi again. I've checked with my friend and it seems is really complex because DCS is not providing enough info. Some recommendations were: 1) Say visibility is 9999 if it's clear 2) Say SKC on the signifcant phenomena if there is no clouds.

Again, take this with a grain of salt since it seems is a complicated issue. You may wanna close this one.

Thanks again.
