        @Bruno-Cadet Hi, how exactly do you mean this? Would you like to see airplanes traffic live in Windy or what exactly?

              @Bruno-Cadet In general, there are no such plans for this. I am sorry about that.

                @Suty no problem. However sim-users would subscribe to Premium to have this !

                  Microsoft Flight Simulator (MSFS) pulls weather data from meteoblue
                  https://content.meteoblue.com/en/about-us/references/business-partners/microsoft

                  And meteoblue is a strategic partner of windy!

                    In your flight simulator , try to take off (or landing) from Tokyo , airport RJAH, low IFR now, with heavy thunderstorm (+TSRA) and visibility 1500m.

                      Flying into RJAH with a thunderstorm and 1500m visibility sounds like the perfect way to test your nerves! One minute you're a confident captain, the next you're questioning every life decision on final approach.

                        That would be a fantastic feature for flight simulation enthusiasts. Being able to display your aircraft's live position in Windy while using a flight simulator would make it much easier to compare in-game weather with Windy's forecasts and plan flights in real time. Even if it were offered as an optional plugin or Premium feature, I think many flight simulator users would find it very useful.

                          For those who enjoy flight simulation, that would be an excellent feature. It would be much simpler to compare in-game weather with Windy's forecasts and build real-time flight plans if you could see your aircraft's current position in Windy while using a flight simulator. I believe that many flight simulator users would find it very helpful, even if it were made available as a premium feature or optional plugin.

                            That would be amazing to see! Flying an A320 or A380 through stormy, windy conditions could make the experience much more realistic and immersive. Streaming the aircraft's position sounds like a good starting point, but handling turbulence, wind effects, and realistic flight physics would also make a big difference. I’d love to see this feature implemented!
