Mad WX

Featured Replies

I'm new to Vatsim and I've got a major problem. The wind chucks my plane about all over the place. I get about 30kt fluctuation on IAS and cannot maintain wings level or directional control. As example figures, the ATIS gives 290/18kts, Pressing Shift Z shows this to be about right. Every 5 to 10 seconds the screen will flicker and I will suddenly have 290/55kts. This causes the plane to lurch by more than 50 degrees angle of bank and gives a major loss of airspeed. The situation improves if I clear all WX on FSUIPC however I then get the wind at 360/05 with clear skies which is not representative of the real WX. Please HelpKev

AS2004 MR1 did help the situation somewhat but I wouldn't go as far to say it's solved just yet. It still does some wacky things but they did mange to smooth it out some more at least,...usually. Jay Eklund - Pilot 4332Senior VP Denver Operationshttp://www.pacificwestairways.com
