Hi
Looking at SD Plan on Windows there is an option to use auto weather or user defined weather for the various legs, how do you do this using the ipad app?
On a similar note, with a return flight you press the "reverse route" button to sort out the new headings etc But on doing that if you are sat in the aircraft and have no wifi the ipad will not be able to get the latest weather and sets all winds to 000/00. How do you reverse a route and keep the same weather loaded?
Does anyone know the basics of how and when SD ipad gets the latest weather/notams/plates both during planning and also after hitting "go flying" ? Does it make any difference which order we press the "reverse course", "go flying" and "stop navigating" buttons?
cheers
Graham

If you are offline, SkyDemon cannot obtain the latest forecast data. It may already have obtained forecast data, and if it has, it will use it. Offline means SkyDemon will not fetch any new forecast data. It would be a mistake to state that if you are offline, SkyDemon has no forecast data. In the case where no data is available, though, SkyDemon will revert to nil wind and show a warning.
