The !w sentence is a proprietary format sentence that
contains air data and
instrument settings
The format is:
!W,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11, 12,13*hhCRLF
1 Vector wind direction in degrees
2 Vector wind speed in 10ths of meters per second
3 Vector wind age in seconds
4 Component wind in 10ths of Meters per second + 500
5 True altitude in Meters + 1000
6 Instrument QNH setting
7 True airspeed in 100ths of Meters per second
8 Variometer reading in 10ths of knots + 200
9 Averager reading in 10ths of knots + 200
10 Relative variometer reading in 10ths of knots + 200

11 Instrument MacCready setting in 10ths of knots

Enough data here ?


Not quite, it's missing indicated airspeed and temperature...
