January 22, 200620 yr I have noted that while using ActiveSky 6 that I am experiencing some severe airspeed fluctuations. I have seen my speed jump from 290 Knots IAS at FL320 to around 390 Knots IAS then down as low as 220 Knots IAS all within about 1-2 minutes. This happens on nearly every flight and on one occasion it resulted in a stall. Is this normal? Or do I need to do some additional tuning on ActiveSky 6.Current system is custom built:Gigabyte GA-K8NSC-939 w/AMD Athlon 64 3000+ and 1MB DDR400 memoryRadeon X850 AGP Card with 256MB DDR3 MemoryOnBoard Sound & Ethernet500W Power SupplyWindows 64 XP Pro, currentFS2004 with patchActiveSky 6 (Upgrade from ActiveSky Enhanced)Abacus USA Extreme LandscapeAbacus World Extreme LandscapeThanks much for any pointers you can give me.David Kluempers

January 22, 200620 yr FSUIPC 3.51 was definetly a problem. You should be all set once you get 3.53. Dave Paige

January 22, 200620 yr I have updated to 3.53 and everything looks good, flying from Cairo to Frankfurt for the past hour and no problems at all. I just saw that a service update was released, I will get that and install after the flight.Thank you all very much for you help. ActiveSky was well worth the money.David Kluempers
