      Hi! As a flatland paraglider pilot, it would be awesome if there were more altitudes to choose for wind strength, especially between 100 and 600 meters. Quite often we reach altitudes between 300-500 meters in towing, and we're guessing what the wind strength and direction may be there. Otherwise a fantastic app, keep up the good work, but please add at least 300m!

        Hi,
        Windy can provide only the data that weather models compute. I don’t think they do it for wind between 100m and 600m.

          Did you try the “Upper wind” plugin which provides interpolations of wind levels
