Mery Christmas, 

since the new update of PF3 i have the issue that my Squawk gets lost allways right after airborne. Dave March has already checked several of my log files from PF3 where he can see, that the Squawk is reset to zero, but he can´t see anything what causing this. Once i´am airborne, after initial contact with departure, departure is giving me the following command: "Lufthansa 832 Squawk Ident QNH 1023". Could it be the case, that my MCE FO is mistaking this order to set the transponder to QNH1023? And because this doesnt work for the trasnponder it´s just reset or wiped?

Dave wasn´t able to tell and suggested to ask MCE support about that. Any hint is much appreciated. One thing to know. Because after this command the Squawk seems to be lost, PF3 then ask me to check transponder where i can see it´s empty. If i ask my MCE to set the Squawk to the correct value, he does and everything is fine again.

Indeed, we'll have to modify FO's response to the new kind of instructions that weren't there before, like "sqauawk ident"
