January 27, 200818 yr When i set my weather (default weather) to heavy rain or snow, the aircraft (doesn't matter which either) loses the auto pilot speed setting. For instance, i'll be flying at 280 ias and the indicator all of a sudden goes to zero. I cant control the speed via auto pilot and, obviously, i overshoot the airport on final at high speed. I can set the auto pilot speed to whatever and it doesn't take. If i clear the weather or set the rain to light or medium, i don't ave this problem.Anyone have this little bug happen? I don't set my weather like that very much but it would be nice to fly in a torrential rain storm. lol
January 27, 200818 yr Hi,You need to turn on PITOT heat with the shift/h keys. Your PITOT tube is freezing up and airspeed drops to zero.Thanks,Jimhttp://www.hifisim.com/banners/hifi-community-sigbanner.jpghttp://www.hifisim.com/
