Therefore, if you are editing legs in one part of the world (in my case, Western Australia) then you would set the offset to +8 and work from there. However, if you then view another area of the world the times are still in GMT +8.Of course, you can always leave the offset at 0 ;-)CheersSimon(Reminder - I've put a yroute page up at www.spacejock.com)

In FS go to the airport you want to check. Go there in the Season you typically fly in. Then go to World/Time & Season. Check the time difference between local time and GMT time. This is the offset you should use.Hope this helps,-- Tom GibsonCalifornia Classic Propliners: http://members.aol.com/tgfltsim/index.htmlAlcoHauler Locomotive Page: http://members.aol.com/alcohauler/home/alcohaul.htmlFreeflight Design Shop: http://www.freeflightdesign.com/ San Diego Model RR Museum: http://www.sdmodelrailroadm.com/Drop by! ___x_x_(")_x_x___
