Pprune radar:

That's quite possibly the most sensible thing I've ever heard an ATCO say! I suggest that be immediately written into MATS part 1! :E

PPRune Radar IS the most sensible ATCO tho "seldom seen on Radar"

Further on Radar's conmments: I found the met office's forecasts to be surprisingly accurate when I was regularly flying between Shetland & Scotland for over two years at all hours of the clock. They were damn near always on the mark when I compared their forecasts to what I experienced.

A number of times I had flights, including ambulance flights, that I cancelled due to the forecast - and backed up by the METARS - because I could find no legal & safe way to complete the flight without exposing the patient to a greater risk than waiting for a day or so for a Wx improvement.
