Default Info and Links for WX in the Russian Far East Region

Hi!

You probably know this, but Russia charges quite a lot of money for ATC
service.
So, whenever you enter Russian airspace, I think you're charged 100 US per
100 km or something.
I may be way off, but I have considered flying to Russia, and found out it
cost several hundred dollars in ATC service alone. Doesn't matter if your
IFR or VFR either...
Please someone correct me if I'm wrong, and sorry I didn'r answer your
question on weather in that region...

Good luck with your trip,

Frode

Hi,

I'm contemplating on a trip to fly myself in a Cessna 172 from Alaska
to Beijing next summer through the Siberian coast. I have a site on
Russian wx report (kind of like the duat wx portion). But where could
I find more detailed information on the weather pattern during the
summer time along the route? I'm particularly interested in knowing if
there exists a general wx phenomena (ie maybe July is a raining season
that I should avoid and August is a sunny period) in that region and
also getting some daily satellite or radar wx images.

Thanks in advance,

Jizhong
