Time

Recommended Posts

If it is one thing I would appreciate (if possible) would be a fix for worldwide time in "real Time"..

I currently live in Dubai, and want to plan a flight from, say Sydney to  Beijing. Or perhaps from New York to Vienna.

I would appreciate it if the time shown is for that flight that I choose, and not have to struggle with figuring out the time in one place and not getting it wrong in the sim, or the change to winter or summer schedules and whatnot.

Thanks for your consideration in advance,

Waleed Nuseibeh.

FS Real Time is a third party addon for FSX and P3d, which fixes the time zones in those sims, so hopefully MS will take note and apply such a fix.

Time in a flight simulator, just like IRL, should always refer to UTC, no matter where on Earth you are.

That's the time you fill in the flightplan, not local / daylight saving / whatever....

And because we'll be connected to the internet I guess that the time drift will be gone forever.

I’d like to see the time drift and bad timezones/daylight saving issues fixed. You really shouldn’t need a tool like FSRealtime to keep the sim synced with the clock, and it doesn’t fix DST changes..
