It says "No TAF or METAR is available for the selected airfield.", which is incorrect (see e.g. http://www.lfv.se/MetInfoHTML.asp?TextFile=metar.sweden.list.htm&SubTitle=&T=METAR%A0Sweden&Frequency=30). I am using version 2.7.0.0 on PC and 2.7.0.20204 on Android. Edited 6/25/2013 4:51:59 PM by lhe

Group: Forum Members Posts: 154, Visits: 445	Tim Dawson (21/06/2013) We identified a bug whereby TAF and/or METAR for a specific airfield can stubbornly refuse to download. Fairly rare, but chances are this is what you're running into. We've solved this problem once and for all in SkyDemon 2.7 which is due for release next week. Is this related to the problems I had with ESCM and ESIB, as reported earlier?
