We can’t cover them all here, but here are a few recent improvements we’ve noticed with MSFS: Improved flight models and ground physics. More realistic instrumentation (e.g., Visual improvements with lighting and weather. This makes visual flight rules (VFR) flying much easier and a whole lot more fun.

The lights change color to indicate weather conditions based on METAR reports via internet. Either way, METAR is a format for reporting weather observations. ASOS (Automated Surface Observing System) or older AWOS (Automated Weather Observing System) stations automatically collect the data used in METARs. Take your pick.

However, it’s usually best to have your ground handler assist with flight plan filing in Greece. They can monitor any flight planning issues that may come up and make on-the-spot revisions, when necessary, to avoid operator delays. Last-minute flight plan changes may be done via Eurocontrol while you’re on the ground.
