September 15, 201312 yr In my long range flights, every now and again I realise at cruise, my airspeed starts to bleed off, sometimes quickish, sometimes slowly. I can't figure out why, the closest reason I can guess is something to do with headwind/tailwind change or some significant change in weather. This means not only the weather engine alone, but it may be because I was switching weather engines as well? I would like to solve this issue myself but not sure how I could use the manuals for that, the QRH tells me what errors mean, but not this type. Could someone please let me know more definitively what's causing this issue and how to fix it, and if possible, stuff like this in future, what could I do to trouble shoot it myself? Thanks in advance Brendan Chen Learning to use and getting use to FSX!

September 16, 201312 yr Next time this happens, could you post a screenshot with your PFD/FMA and your ND? What happened to AVSIM
September 16, 201312 yr Author Sure, in fact it's saved now! When I get home I'll add it to this thread. But since this is more a dynamic problem, I think it will be hard to capture in an image. I will try anyway. Brendan Chen Learning to use and getting use to FSX!
September 16, 201312 yr Hi,Brendan, In addition to Oliver's suggestion, next time this happens check the air temperature (TAT) on the EICAS. It should be well below O degrees centigrade. Mike

Mike Hi Mike, Thanks for the reply. From memory it was something like -35C. Brendan Chen Learning to use and getting use to FSX!
