Hi,

Just purchase the A340 what a wonderful aircraft. I was configuring for my first departure (CYUL) and I notice that the Pressure and wind direction and speed  was different in the EFB (the metar for CYUL indicate 03010KT, pressure 30.21 (1023))  in my flight option screen,   but on Active Sky it was showing  (60 @ 11 kts true, pressure 1019) . see attach picture

I also check my OPS plan from Simbrief using the View Flightplan option and as you can see the weather info is simular as Active Sky and not with My Flight.

When I upload the weather info in the takeoff option screen in the EFB it loaded the wrong info, the one in the My Flight option.

So where does the A340 EFB takes is weather info? 

Is this simply a missing options choice on my side?

I just realized that I should mention that I am using MSFS2024. Also I just did some testing with the A350, and it seem that this aircraft has the same problem. I tested other aircraft like FENIX and PMDG and they are find, reading the correct info from Active Sky.
