Hi Nico,

I know you are away, and this isn't urgent. A week or so ago I took a flight out of LFPO. Every time I opened RT and PSXT, PSXT would crash (the UI would close suddenly) and RT would remain open while still showing traffic. This happened multiple times. I quit the sim, restarted the computer and tried again,with the same result. Assuming that the issue was specific to LFPO, I took off and waited until I was close to the English Channel (destination was EGLL), and restarted PSXT. Everything worked fine from there.

Today, I thought I would try again, and the same issue happened. I did notice that the file was showing a QF of 0 in the PSXT interface, even though it's not showing up in the TBLO folder.

I have now looked at the log and can see the likely culprit. The LFPO file seems to be empty of parking spots. Here is the log output:

And here is the file located in the 'airports\learned\thirdparty\jetstream\LFPO.xml' that the log says doesn't exist:

No, that cannot be the problem. A learned file may only contain the parameter values at the last time you were at theat airport.

It must be something else.
 

"does not exist" means that PSXT could not find the file.
