Fascinating stuff...............
I must say it’s an interesting pissing competition with Ovation sticking to his guns in spite of the usual suspects and non-topic “provocatuers”. Maybe it should have been titled “Situational Awareness and In Flight Updates”.
PTW1340 Please share with the forum how you see and avoid in hard IFR. Might that be time to find what developed since you got your forecast 4 or 5 hours earlier. Ovation must have had a bad experience with forecasts vs actual and wants to be a better informed pilot any way possible. In CAVOK/VFR conditions you see and avoid as you should. Your input about the limitations the Radar on the BOM site is informative and useful, but the BOM must use this Radar derived info in their forecasts or why would they have them.
PilotHTR I cannot see where Ovation asked for your opinion or anyone else’s but he seems up to speed with this topic (3g) as indeed you appear to be. On the other hand tinpis (who you defend) must be living in the past if his gobbledygook is any guide.
