Review: Equinox IT - fsClimate
Real weather applications for FSX are not as commonly developed as aircraft or scenery add-ons so it's nice when we see a new one on the market. fsClimate from Equinox IT is one that was developed as a very basic weather generator and uses live data from NOAA. Let’s see ...
