How to view the OAT on my current flight level?
I'm flying the S-76C and, unlike the C172, I couldn't find an OAT (outside air temp) gauge.

The weather in the flight configuration window gives me the SL (sea level) temperature, same as the data output.

I want to know when to turn on heaters and antice, but can't do it without the correct temp for my flight level

I would have a look, but I'm far away from my PC atm. What other temperatures are there?

only those two that I could find, there were other temps in the data feed but were related to the engine

FOUND OUT HOW! in the data feed menu, "Aircraft atmosphere" the "AMBtmp" is the one that gives you OAT temp

Easy one to work out, take the OAT at sea level and deduct 3.5 Fahrenheit for every 1000 ft of altitude. If you're working in Centigrade, the temperature drops by 6.5C for every kilometer (3281 ft) of altitude.

Should produce a fairly accurate temperature for you to decide whether you need anti-ice.
