ALPA Weather Control is a remote weather control interface for Active Sky, designed for pilots who want immediate, intentional control of weather without opening the Active Sky application, editing METARs, using the MSFS toolbar, or breaking immersion.
Active Sky must already be installed and running. ALPA Weather Control works alongside it and gives you fast, direct control exactly when you need it.
The program runs with Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020 and Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024 and connects directly to Active Sky FS using the official HTTP API. Weather is controlled from an external tablet, PC, or mobile device over the local network, keeping your focus inside the cockpit.
Why you want this product:
• Change weather instantly during a flight without pausing or interrupting the simulator • Switch between Live Weather and Custom Weather at any time with a single tap • Inject realistic training scenarios based on Active Sky logic, including: – Clear skies with calm or user-defined surface winds – Overcast and low cloud conditions for IFR training – Rain and storm conditions with wind and turbulence effects • Adjust wind direction, wind speed, and gusts on the fly without touching METAR strings • Apply changes immediately through Active Sky without restarting the simulator or Active Sky • Control weather externally, which is essential for home cockpits and ProSim setups where weather presets do not work with MSFS 2020 or 2024 and accessing the main PC is inconvenient
What this product is not:
• It is not a standalone weather engine • It does not generate weather by itself • It does not replace Active Sky
ALPA Weather Control is built for serious simmers, home cockpit owners, flight training environments, and fixed-base simulators who need fast, reliable, distraction-free control of weather during flight, not before it.
