Excellent advice, at half price!

It also includes the; "Weather Engine", for loading real weather in your Flight Sim area of choice!

I have it for my FS 2004....(originally $44).

...that's what happens when/if you take; "Flight Simming" far too seriously, and forget that its just a fun, Computer Game!... :lol: ....!

...but...

.....apart from the excellent, various, REX programmable, generated, Textures....

....the included "REX Weather Engine" (apparently) downloads, and installs "real weather conditions" into the Flight Sim, which is supposed to replicate the actual atmospheric conditions experienced at the location which you have selected in the Sim.
The Weather map when displayed, can be compared to real weather conditions being experienced at the location, based on up-to-date, broadcast weather news at the time.
I get my daily, California, local Flight Sim; "weather" news, from "kron4", and the "LA Times" on the Internet News Channels,
.
It often appears to be quite accurate, in my Sim experience.
