Hi Mike,
Flight Reader just keeps getting better!

I installed the new update but the only options I have are for windspeed (mph), maxWindSpeed (mph). There doesn’t seem to be any options for me to choose the metric equivalents and I don’t see any of the other log fields.

Am I missing something? I did reprocess my log files and only the two Imperial fields I mention above appeared.

Thanks,

Chris

Try scrolling down in the “Selected Fields” list. The other WEATHER fields are likely already in your selected list.

You were right, they are there. I guess since the two I had circled in the screen shot were in the available fields, I assumed all the others would be there as well and never thought to scroll down in the selected fields. Thanks for clarifying this for me.
