Hey there,


Could someone with a history using this program comment on it please.
I would like to know how the predictions, along with it's various
models, have turned out compared to actual conditions flown.
Are there many people using it?


Where do you fly? I've had better experiences with Blipmaps in the
Washington, Oregon, Idaho region than XC Skies.

I fly from Jean, NV. Like others, I found XCSkies darn good in 2009,
less so in 2010. OTOH,, I think 2010 was just 'less so' in general!
2011 will be better!
