Howto to read the Metar Information:
Example METAR LOWW:
LOWW -> Station Identifier as ICAO (International Civil Aviation Organization) -> Wien
110350Z -> Date and Time 11th of Month on 03.50 Zulu time
14008KT -> Wind Information -> The wind is from one four zero degrees and is sustained at 8 knots
CAVOK -> Ceiling And Visibility OK
M00/M03 -> Air temperature is -0°C, dew point temperature is -3°C
Q1017 -> ATMOSPHERIC PRESSURE -> QNH at the aerodrome is 1017
NOSIG -> NO SIGnificant changes coming within the next two hours
Good explanation.

CRUISE
Check and monitor the flightplan. Check STAR and APPROACH altitude contraints and compare to actual charts. Check RAD/NAV ILS frequency and compare with actual charts. Estimate your TOD based on your Cruise FL and compare to actual TOD. Descend should begin aprroximately at a distance of 10 NM plus 3 NM per 1.000ft above destinations runway elevation. If ATC is not giving you clearance to descent shortly (3-5 Minutes) after your TOD, then the STAR or APPROACH likely is broken. Start to descent then anyways.
DESCENT
Again, due to a lot of wrong STAR altitudes in MS FS database, you are advised to constantly check your altitude during descent and approach even if you were given clearance to descent at the TOD. For a standard 3° glidepath approach, make sure you are not significantly higher at a given point than the elevationof the destination plus a 1.000ft per 3 NM to go. Example: If you have 21 NM to go, destination is at sea level and you are at an altitude of 12.000 ft, than you are way too high. you should be around 7.000 ft

Wetterdaten von LOWW
In meinem Fall:
1032 hPa, umrechnen in (in Hg – inch of mercury)
1 hPa ≙ 0,02953 in Hg / 1032 * 0,02953 = 30,18 (gerundet)
QNH -> 30.24
TEMP -> 6°
MAG WIND -> 360/8
MDA (Minimum Descent Altitude) -> In Wien ist sie 800′; die Elevation von Wien beträgt 600′; 800-600 = 200.
Der Wert in Klammern der Map aus Navigraph entspricht der DH.
DH (Decision Height) -> 200
