Incorrect user aircraft labels...

[Ken Hall 2]

W10; P3Dv5.3; Active Sky; Active Sky Cloud Art; Go-Flight modules; Radar Contact RC4; Skytrack (VA tracking); LNMap 2.8.12; Navigraph 2309.

Intermittent incorrect labels! Could this issue be related to the order in which a flight is loaded/started?

My routine is to run P3D; set Honeycomb options; run Go-Flight controls; run ASky & Cloud Art; run LNM (plan built on previous day); run SkyTrack; run RC4. Variations in this routine also show intermittent incorrect labels - it is not consistent!

I have set 'user aircraft labels' to show aircraft reg; airline; call-sign; height; height above ground.

The height information and registrration is not an issue but airline and call-sign vary! Today's example displayed:

atc_id=C-MIKE ; atc_airline=Wisconsin; atc_flight_number=9999

 

This, despite checking and confirming details in the aircraft.cfg file as here...

This has me baffled!

No. Order does not matter.

This information is taken from P3D/FSX through SimConnect as is and the code did not change for ages.🤷‍♂️

Might be a P3D SimConnect issue. It wouldn't be the first time. Unfortunately I have no P3D v5 here to test.
Doing some quick tests with FSX (same aircraft.cfg files) I see no issues.

OK, thanks...

It is not 'desperately' important - just curious as to 'why' 😎.

I can live with it 😏.

It's working on FSX, MSFS and X-Plane. No idea what's going on there.
