750mb and 650mb levels
-
Would it be possible to add the 750mb and 650mb levels to the altitude selector bar? These altitudes are incredibly helpful for free flight aviation and it would be a massive improvement in use if they were available, since it is quite a large jump in altitude between 800, 700, and 600mb. Thanks!

With the "sounding forecast" feature, you have data for even more levels.

The sounding feature is great, but unfortunately it appears that the data in it is simply interpolated from the available levels. Smaller-scale mid-atmosphere inversions aren't resolved. I would however love to have finger resolution on the sounding as well.

@krisholub Hi, it is quite expensive for us to add new levels, because each level contain a few parameters and we also try to have same levels for all models. So adding 750 and 650 means much more data. We would add it only if there was bigger demand for it from more users.

@krisholub Yes, it is just linear interpolation. We are thinking of adding more levels for sounding only, because of inversions, but unfortunately it has very low priority now.
