Thanks!Umm….I don't think Xavion does anything with weather even in the full version for real world flying. It's an emergency airport finder. But this link might be of help to you: http://xavion.com/wp-contentuploads201308xavion-manual-version-1-21-rtf/set-up-x-plane/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ointment Posted March 28, 2014 Report Share Posted March 28, 2014 Xavion has to be connected to an ADS-B receiver to display weather. Not sure if or how that can happen with X-Plane. http://xavion.com/app/hardware/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
psanker Posted March 28, 2014 Report Share Posted March 28, 2014 (edited) Xavion is not really intended for use in a simulator. It is a supplement to a real cockpit, and yes, one of its primary functions is to locate alternate runways in the event of an emergency. I'd honestly recommend something like AirTrack for iPad or XHSI for a laptop. Edited March 28, 2014 by psanker Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ointment Posted March 29, 2014 Report Share Posted March 29, 2014 (edited) Xavion is not really intended for use in a simulator.I have to disagree with this statement. If that were true, then why would Laminar offer an X-Plane only version of the app for $9.99? Edited March 29, 2014 by ointment Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
