TAS defaults to 120 when importing a Flight Plan

Featured Replies

Hi,In the briefing screen, when you add a Flight Plan to your route, it calculates pretty much all values right, however, the flight plan I'm tring to add, was generated by FSBuild and it seems not to include the 'correct' TAS, so I always have to change the TAS value from 120 to 529 (TAS 529 is about Mach .80 from FL280 to FL400)My question is: Can I change the 'default' value from 120 to 529 somewhere? is this an FSBuild or ASA/ASE bug?Thanks,

It's not a bug, it's a feature. The alternative is to leave the box blank as it was in ASV6... Since the program has no idea what plane you're going to fly it will always be 'wrong' at some point.DJ

Hi,FS flight plans do not contain any speed data so in ASE we have chosen a default speed of 120kts. This needs to be changed manually each time if you want more realistic times. As stated, in the past we even defaulted to a blank speed that a user would need to fill in.

Thanks for clarifying. Understood now. any chance this value can be changed via config file?

I haven't seen any config entry that would do so; perhaps JSkorna can speak to that?DJ

Hi All,It is hard coded into AS, so no way of changing the default value.
