Could someone tell me, whilst enroute, is there a way to get the WEATHER or NOTAM for an airport not presented in the METAR, TAF or NOTAM TABs - I'm using an IPAD2

Also I download PLATES and then they disappear - any ideas

I think I've read most info on here - any help gratefully received

Best - Westie

Mantino thats not the most helpful response.

westie - i assume you have a 3G iPad?

If you are suggesting you want to be flying a route and select an airfield not part of your route to check the weather there, i don't believe this is possible 'on the fly'. I suppose I would ask why might you want to do this? If you are in a situation where you need / want to divert you can select the new airfield and the either append to route or use direct to - provide you have 3G and your SD is set for online in flight mode it should refresh on all counts.

In terms of plates I personally havent had this issue - it keeps the plates that are based on my route - it doesn't download all plates and store them on the iPad only the ones relevant to the route. Same scenario above would apply i believe. Though I think you can select an airfield not in your route and select Find Plates from within the airfield menu.

Hope that helps.
