Force weather download at startup?

Is there a way, without using an external program like ActiveSky, to automatically force FS02 to download real world weather from the default server at the start of my default flight?  Maybe an option in FSUIPC that I can't find?

I tried downloading the weather, then saving the flight as default but it just started up with the last weather conditions and didn't automatically update them.  At least I don't think it tried to update the weather - it's possible I wasn't flying long enough.

Look in the fs2002 cfg file you might find something there that you can edit but not sure.

No, there is an entry under

[Weather]
LOADWEATHER=1

but I think it just loads it from the HD.
