Zulu time in FMC....

Featured Replies

Hy to all,just a question...I start my FS9 and insert the real time...But FMC gives me a different time...For instance...I start at 14:55Z (real time) but when I go in the FMC "POS INIT" I get 17:52Z...Why?????WHat do I do wrong???In this manner I can't get to know in real Zulu time when I reach the intersections or destination(in PROG section..)?????Thanx

Are you flying in Britain? If not, are you sure you're inserting the real zulu time in the GMT box in Time & Season and not the local time?

The wierd thing is that in the "TIME and SEASON" box if I insert for instance todays date 19 July 2005 and in the "LOCAL TIME" box 18:012(real local time in ITALY)...I get on the right box "GMT" 02:12...why???Shouldn't I get 16:12 GMT time????

Ok...I did understand now....!!!I first have to choose the airport I want to fly from and then I must insert the ZULU time in the GMT box of TIME and SEASON of FS9...And I get the correct time also in the FMC....Ciaoooooooooooooo
