Yes, but I need to make up a flight plan to get the PIREPs for a given

area.
Cumbersome if I'm just "looking around".


No you don't. Just get an "area" briefing.

Plus: this morning, I saw a lot of icing PIREPs in my neighborhood on the
graphical display at ADDS. DUATS gave me one.


What were the times on the ADDS PIREPs? PIREPs expire from the official
briefing system relatively quickly, but I suppose ADDS could hang on to them
for a longer period. Of course, that puts the onus on you to look at the
time of the PIREP and determine whether it's relevant to the period of time
you're interested in.

Or possibly your DUAT briefing did not include as distant information as the
ADDS search you did. I doubt DUAT is hiding valid, recent PIREPs from you.

Pete
