Quoi de neuf dans la dernière version ?
With the new release 2.8 of the DWD FlugWetter app, many small and large enhancements have been implemented for more information and better usability.
On the one hand, the cross section and meteograms have been expanded.
It is now possible to define a flight time and freely select a departure location, a waypoint and a destination on a map.
On the other hand the airport names are displayed from a certain zoom level and when selecting the weather elements the whole weather report is indicated.
Many small useful features now round off the use of the DWD FlugWetter app.
