Does anyone here have a clue why whenever I use a weather engine (ASV6 or REX) my aircraft always acts like I am flying thru a hurricane? The plane bobs all over the place, the airspeed is up and down, and on approach, the AP can hardly hold the ILS. All this with winds not over five or six knots. This occurs with all my aircraft and with both of the above mentioned weather engines. Thanks in advance for any help.

It could be wake turbulence.

Thru the whole flight?

Then thermal generation.

So how does one deal with this "thermal generation" thru the whole flight?

Are you setting Wind Smoothing in FSUIPC ?

If you're flying a light a/c then yes it will bob about in the sim.vololiberista

Are you setting Wind Smoothing in FSUIPC ?

I Think i Would Get FSUIPC To It Helps Alot

Have the registered version of FSUIPC. Will check the "wind smoothing" setting.

its not an option its a must! :)

Go through your options in ASV6. Aree you using AS65? It was a no-cost upgrade as I recall. Check your purchase history at simmarket.com. Either way, there are various smoothing options that it can set in FSUIPC.I believe the real world weather updates take place every fifteen minutes in AS65. I choose to use the archived weather for the Z time of the flight to avoid time zone differences.You can also reduce the aircraft turbulence sensitivity globally in FS9 by adjusting this line in FS9.cfg in the Weather section(back-it up first):TurbulenceScale=0.300000is what I use. This does not effect wake turbulence but thermals, in clouds, etc.AS65 can cause rapid wind shifts as you cross reporting station boundaries. That's one reason why wind smoothing was introduced in FSUIPC.AS65 also introduced wind affects as it flows over terrain. These get more severe as you fly closer to the surface. In GA you really see this on approach. This is the way it is in the real world.

Thanks for the info Ron. Will check the items you listed.
