New NAIPS forecast format
The new weather forecast format was due to start today. Can't get an AFOR from NAIPS or BOM this morning. Anyone else been able to make it work?
I can't even seem to login to the NAIPs website on my Laptop now? Thankfully not working today but I will be tomorrow, god help whomever is in charge of this when Aircraft are grounded because they can't get weather!

Ditto to all. Cant even log in now. Must have got lucky before because forecasts loaded. Didn't last very long. Is this new format going to work with the NAIPS app? Methinks not.

Still plenty of aircraft flying around, wonder how they got their forecasts? I can't even put a plan in. Tried to ring Airservices help line but gave up after 10 mins on hold.

Transition failure!!!
Is this the safest transition CASA and airservices can bring in sudden changes. The alternative is to overload ATC over coms with flight plan entries. or is there another way to log flight plans now. (other than calling coz they are not answering)

"No Sir, I only planned to fly 50nm today...I got to that point then decided to fly another 50nm! I got there and, you guessed it, decided to fly YET ANOTHER 50nm!! That's why I don't have any weather..."
Great, now not only do I NOT have information above 10,000ft on there it doesn't even show WINDS above 10,000ft, why on EARTH did they remove that?! What is the damned logic behind removing it and now making us have to go get that information in yet another area?!?!?!

The guy answering the phone at ASA recommended I use the BOM site. When I told him it was offence he said he didn't know that.
Wonder how many strict liability offences are flying around the sky today?
