The five views are: • METAR: Displays color-coded METARs • TAF: Displays TAFs • METAR List: Displays a summary of the most important pieces of the METARs. • Winds Aloft: Displays a color-coded table of the winds aloft in an easy-to-read format. • Temperatures Aloft: Displays a color-coded table of the temperatures aloft in an easy-to-read format. Also displays the freezing level. • 6 hr Trend: Graphically displays the trend information for Visibility, Ceiling, Temperature and Dew Point, Wind Direction, Wind Speed, and Pressure. METAR View METAR-reporting airports that are within the vicinity of the reference airport, navaid, fix, or intersection entered will be displayed. The METARs will be color-coded according to the reported conditions. In addition, the distance from the reference airport, navaid, fix, or intersection will be displayed. If the Quick Look option is selected (see Prefs, Weather, Quick Look): • the times will be converted to local • the altitudes will be decoded, and • the remarks section will not be displayed. If a route is entered, WingX will display METAR-reporting airports along the route. [Premier Edition only] 82
