Time Zones question

Featured Replies

HI there,if i set my local time (northern Italy +1) in FSworldtime & season menu i can see that UTC is 2 hours early and not 1 hour as supposed to be.Can anyone please explain?Thanks in advanceLuigi ;-)

Daylight saving time? If not then check the AVSIM library. There are some great time zone correction programs. Perhaps someone can post a link for you. R-

Hi Ron,here in Italy daylight saving time is in use.Maybe it's different in England? This could explain why 2 hours...But i thought it was active in whole EuropecheersLuigi ;-)

If your timezone is +1 UTC and daylight savings time is put into place in your area - your timezone will temporarily go to +2 UTC.UTC never changes.But - you really want the updated Time Zones - search for TZ3.0 in the library.Though you will need to remember to run the update the first of each month.

Thanks.So London time will be +1 during summer, supposed that daylight time saving is active in whole europe. Isn't it?cheersLuigi ;-)

I have no idea about which parts of Europe do or do not use Daylight Savings Time.But if London is on 0 UTC normally, and London goes to DST - they will be +1 hour.
