October 20, 201312 yr I am having a problem with the effect the wind as on the airspeed of the aircraft, the problem seems to effect more when on finals. The weather conditions are variable winds, I know this should have effects but not too the degree it has! Anyone know a way to fix this? Cheers Robert Ainley

October 20, 201312 yr Author I normally use active sky 2012 but at the moment trying just standard fsx weather!
October 20, 201312 yr I don't no why it did that, I posted and it said server error! What I do when posting on AVSIM is compose the thread message, then copy/paste to notepad, then hit the Post button. Sadly it can be hit or miss when posting on AVSIM. About 40% of my posts get the Server Error. If you get the Server error, don't try to post again. Just re-load AVSIM and check to see if your post actually made it.

(aka icing of pitot causing incorrect readings of airspeed)
October 20, 201312 yr Author I am flying the 737-800, pitot heaters def on. It's defiantly when wind is either variable direction or gusts. It makes for a very rough approach for the passengers!!
October 20, 201312 yr I normally use active sky 2012 but at the moment trying just standard fsx weather! FSX weather is notorious for creating sudden and large shifts in wind direction. Best avoided. In effect it is giving you windshear problems the whole time. Addon weather such as Active Sky controls the FSX weather engine and attempts to smooth these effects out for you by directly controlling winds, providing a much more realistic experience. If you have a licensed copy of FSUIPC you can use that to smooth FSX wind changes too.
