New TAF format?

The fact is that we (the US) are the odd guys out. 99.9% of the rest of the world is on ICAO standard, but we are VERY slow to adapt it.

Boo Hoo get over it. God, people whine about the stupidest things!

its not that hard to figure out. Just use the brain you have in that little head of yours!

Never said I couldnt figure it out, just that I do not like the new format....It's called an opinion. Talk about a whiner, Sheez!!!!

I think it's kewl, it takes some mental arithmetic out of the scan for me--especially with the longer flights.

same here. We have many flights that we can't even dispatch off the current TAF because they are so long. We usually have to use a 24 hour one which was issued 6 hours ago and looks NOTHING like the most recent one...

I really miss the FC's now.

They suck - like someone else said, its not like the 24 hr ones are that valuable or accurate to begin with anyway...
