I appreciate that the IFD will display the TAF and METAR data from an ADS-B input source, but please give me the option to read it as raw or undecoded data.  I find it easier and faster to read the encoded weather and pull out the data I need quickly.

On the FMS page under INFO before selecting the METAR I get a single line of the undecoded weather, unfortunately on the IFD440 the line isn't long enough to display the whole METAR and of course when I open the METAR I'm presented with a decoded version.

I understand some people prefer to get their weather decoded and that is a personal choice, but given the option I prefer it encoded, even more so when pulling the weather from a X-C trip, I can get METARs from 50+ stations, takes a lot let room to read it encoded.

If Avidyne really feels is necessary to decode weather than why not decode the remarks section of the METAR, some of them I know and can decode on my own but there are a lot that require a magic decoder ring to decipher.

I'm sure this is one of those hot button items like north up vs track up, or tastes great vs less filling.  All I'm asking for is the option.

Improve enroute frequency list for Europe. FIS frequencies are not listed today. Also some radar frequencies are missing in the UK.
