Hugely helpful. Some of this info I have spent many hours searching answers for online. You were very clear and precise in what you presented. Thank you

[@BritishAvgeek]

Great to hear 🙂

[@TheDiceman56]

Just seen your video. (two years after)......lol. Great stuff. I only use Series X and wish its print out function worked. Unless I am doing it wrong. Thank you for your simple explanation. Really helpful.

09:31 It's the other way around

[@BritishAvgeek]

1 statute mile is 0.87nm so it sounds like what I said was correct?

[@runwild6014]

@@BritishAvgeek that makes it shorter

In the temperature section, letter M used for minus ... eg M04 for -4.

[@BritishAvgeek]

Yep indeed! Skirted over that though I did mention that minus is shown differently to plus temps 👍

[@salokin1]

@@BritishAvgeek ... and it would have been current temp if you'd have done this video five weeks ago!

[@BritishAvgeek]

@@salokin1 would have been the perfect example! 😂

Nice, thanks

Good video but a little close from the paper would be better on my screen i was far and unable to read it

[@BritishAvgeek]

Indeed that's the limitation with this video - big screens are better to view the paper ... I was in Max Zoom myself so couldn't get any closer to the paper sadly! That said, I just checked on my mobile phone, and in landscape and 1080p it was perfectly readable!

[@jean-stephanekouame]

@@BritishAvgeek Ok i will try thanks a lot!!!!

US uses Celsius ?

[@marcw.5492]

Very good ! Id like to understand the reason that we still use certain conventions in air flight... especially the abbrev in flight plans and metar. Why on earth - memory and computers are cheap - digital screens are large and easier to read. Yet we use the most difficult "code " like our wives might be listening. I mean seriously "they" (whoever they are ) cant spell out "Showers" or "thunderstorms". I mean DZ might be interpreted on the teeny tiny paper as "Danger Zoo" birds you know.... i digress. I used to dislike the overuse of icons, but they seem more meaningful than this. I know you are not in charge but who is ? Merry Christmas.
