According to that flight it looks like your sim rate changed to 1/256 for about 1 second before being resolved. Sim rate is mapped to the R key I believe in flight simulator, did you perhaps hit it by accident during your flight? While you were flying did the duenna stay green the entire time or did it change to red at some point during your flight, there is a sim rate marker on it and if that turned red during your flight, then thats the reason.

I dont have Prepar3d at all, as for the Duenna I can't be sure until someone tells me if it works or not. From experience the incremental Prepar3D updates don't break the Duenna, the large version changes (3 - 4 for example) break it, however with being 4 days till the race, updating the P3D V4.2 may not be a good idea..

NOTAM The full Special Rules will be released on Friday, February 16, 2018 at 1900 UTC. This version will incorporate the full Routing information. Thank you, Executive Committee

Good Afternoon Everyone. The special rules for the 2018 running of the Round the World Race have been posted. Routing details for the most part are redacted until closer to the event. You can find the rules here : https://www.fsrtwrace.com/pdf/2018 RTWR Special Rules v0.95.pdf Thank you Executive Committee

Good Morning, The Race Administration for 2018 has been posted. You may find it here: https://www.fsrtwrace.com/pdf/2018 RTWR Race Administration v1.00 Release.pdf Please note we need 3 volunteers for each team to be on the Racing Committee this year. Please let us know who those will be. Thank you Executive Committee

Good Thinking Leon. All, it has been raised over at SOH that some people even when running flightsim as admin are still getting the error. Please just test your duenna's before race time to be sure there isn't a problem. Cheers.

Good Day all, For the race and the newest version of the Duenna, please be sure you are running it as administrator. Several have noticed an error where it cannot read the airports.bin file which is where the directory of airports is stored. If this error does come up, the duenna still works and still tracks but it will output no airport information on where you started or ended. Should be a simple fix to just run it as administrator and it should output properly. Thank you, Eamonn Watson

The Executive Committee of the RTWR wishes to confirm that the annual race will take place, beginning Friday, February 16th 2018. As like last year, it will focus on one large geographic segment of the globe, will rely on the well-known aircraft of past years and essentially follow the format of the existing General Rules. As is the case every year, a set of Special rules will define the route, specific aircraft limitations and other special circumstances which define the year's challenges. More details to follow.. The Executive Committee

Thanks Roman, An official word on RTWR2018 will be coming shortly..

Do we think we have enough people to field a team for 2018?

To all racers, Hope everyone had a great holiday and a happy new year!!!! With about 36ish days to the next RTW race, I'm trying to gauge interest in the race. Of the 3 teams that usually participate, I'm not sure if flightsim.com will be able to field a team this year so that probably leaves 2 teams. Interest in this event has been slowly dwindling each year and if something isn't done to re-invigorate this event, I fear it may be over. Even we in the Executive team aren't sure if this year a race will proceed or not, hence I'm trying to see if there is want of it. If enough are interested, we can see what we can do to pull together an event this year. If you wish to add ideas on how to reinvigorate this event, you can either drop them here or a post in the official race forums at http://www.fsrtwrace.com
