Funnily enough we use AvPlan. Can’t work out why your winds would have been so far out apart from dodgy weather info from BOM.

Adam,

Could the error have been an incorrect UTC/local departure time and date and therefore giving you the wrong data set?

Possible, I suspect user error is the most likely scenario!

You need an internet access in your aircraft, either via ground cell networks, or via satellites.
In both cases you will need an external antenna with amplifier attached to the wifi modem/router which will broadcast data to your ipad/phone.
I would try with 4g/lte modem with high gain external antenna positioned on the windows.

That's an excellent suggestion, thank you!

I'll happily take odds on that!

Now ya ruined it! I could have taken the flogs money on a sure thing!

Hahaha, I'm sure there'll be other opportunities!
