Yes, the verical winds are very unrealistic unless there under a building cumulus cloud.
   OTOH, if we had horizonial  (i.e. normal) winds, it would make AH much more realistic.
Landing would be so much more fun   :D

Amazing weather in the Main Arena.  Same winds at all levels for what, 6 months now?  And not a drop of rain or snow   :)

C'mon, what say the weather get some randomization from time to time?  Wind sheer at different alts, etc ?

I'd like to see the bomb explosion worked on. The dust cloud it whips up is rather unconvincing. Some kind of air blast originating from the centre would be nice.

Random bird strikes would be cool.  :D  I hear tell that the AH Hurricane is so slow, it takes em from the rear.  :eek:

The way the wind layers are modelled is unrealistic, it adds nothing to AH nor to the Realism, specially not when they are at, what is it, 12k, 14k, 15k 16k and 17k?

Either make them better or remove them I say.

Agree with Wilbus.  Turn off the wind.

Don't turn it off, improve it.
