I have sent a Bug report and posted on a different page here in the forum but I am wondering if anyone else sees, or doesn't see this discrepancy.
I do not get all of the Airmet information. I have been using IFly for 7 years so I am familiar with the settings and weather refreshes, but I am missing information that is available on other web based sites, and what I know from the current weather here in SoCal by looking outside, there is information missing. We should be seeing IFR and Icing for sure at this moment, but nothing is reported.
The Sigmets seem to be populating on IFly while the Airmets (G-Airmets) are not. On both Leidos and SkyVector I can toggle the Airmets and Sigmets on and off, and with only Sigmets selected, they match what I see on IFly, but when including G-Airmets on those sites, there is a significant loss of information that IFly isn't showing. I don't know if there is a way to include/exclude one or the other (G-Airmets/Airmets/Sigmets) on IFly, but all available information would be preferred.
 
I just opened 13.3.7, and it initially crashed, but when I got it running, I activated sigmets/airmets. As you can see, the only thing showing on this night with storms rain and snow over a large area, the only displayed areas are in the LA, MS area. Seems there should be some airmets for icing up in the northern areas. I'll load 13.3.9 and see what happens.

Thats what I am seeing.
If I request a breifing through IFly, it includes the G-Airmets...as it should.
I have always seen the G-Airmets included on IFly, but not currently.
Hope they solve this soon.
