FBL

[scoiattolo]

Last week I get an ATIS at Orly with "FBL" SHRA and I Know that means "light" but anyone knows the translation of FBL.

[BOAC]

Probably 'faible'

[scoiattolo]

But itīs then the only french word in the whole meto codes?

[skiesfull]

Also "FU" =fumee=smoke
"BR" =brume=mist
and probably a few other French abbreviations.

[skiesfull]

'fbl' is a French abbreviation for 'faible' which translates to 'weak'.

[BOAC]

Amazing!

Got FBLSHRA going into Shanghai the other day. Wouldn't have expected that on what must be a modern ATIS system using what I think is out of date terminology.
