When you are at FL290 and your optimum is at FL301 you will get "goto 310" because the optimum is nearer to 310 than to 290. The msg is perfectly ok.If that's alright with ATC get to 310 as soon as the FMC tells you.

That helps a lot! Thanks very much!

Hi everybody,I have a question concerning the thrust limit during takeoff. Let's say I want to perform a takeoff at Delhi, 40

Hi everybody,I just tried to perform a flight from Tehran (OIII) to Tashkent (UTTT). When I entered UTTT as my destination I got a message "UTTT err: IZW unknown" and I wasn't able to select any runway at UTTT. There wasn't any.When I put my 747 to UTTT manually and select UTTT as my starting point I still get this message but at least I can select the correct runways, SIDs as well.Any idea how to fix that in the database?Edit: It should be the latest database available...

Strange. What time of day did you try it? I mean: This smooth horizon stuff seems to work during bright daylight only since this are day-themes. If you switch to something approaching dawn or after dusk you will get a sharp horizon because AS choses some other themes related to dusk and dawn. This appears to me at least. I can't imagine any other reasons for your problem. Tschulligung...:-)

>For FL240 it is not by no means realistic. >In such height the atmosphere is clean.>Ever been to Beijing, Hong Kong or Shanghai? :-) That's exactly what it looks like.@RuedigerTry to increase vis to 50 or 59 miles. That works for me.

Nice to hear that! Did you chose 29 miles visibility for your screenshot? Looks quite realistic to me.Regards from HH-EppendorfStefan

Moin Ruediger,have you tried out the soft horizon themes? Since I use them I have always a nice more or less distant haze, no matter which visibility setting I take.A suggestion for the team:Why not imply a button where you can chose if you want wx-influenced themes with or without soft horizon? This way you avoid fumbling around in the settings, creating a new one with wx-influenced stuff except for the day themes etc...

Well, a hardware firewall isn't exactly cheap. An ordinary router would would do fine for the beginning. But almost any AV program can be run in passive mode. No need to use Norton.The interesting thing in active mode (on access mode) is that every program that is started and any infectable file is scanned before opening. So you should really leave that untouched, especially if you are not so experienced with AV/AT systems.

Consider taking NOD32. Well known for it's speed and low impact on system resources. Although - it's not free. I use it for quite a long time now in it is the best I've seen so far, paticularly when it comes to detection rate vs. speed.

Look in the themes section, I think "sky colors" or something like this. I'm not sure where exactly since I'm sitting in front of my Mac right now. There are several themes will all sorts of pollution and so on. The last two sets are those with the soft horizon.

Moin Ruediger,I didn't change anything in the limits, nor did I change the FSUIPC settings. But - this morning I tried out a flight from BKK to HKG and it worked. It really worked!I had vis limit to 59 nm as recommended, weather in FSUIPC switched off and I just took one of the smooth horizon themes in ASG. So, if anybody hasn't realized yet: this is an amazing peace of software! :-)Regards from HH-EppendorfStefan

OK - thanks very much for your help, I'll try it out and I'll keep you informed, of course...

You should be happy to get a picture like this! :-)I also have the options set as recommended and never get a visibility like this. Always this &%$#

Hi Nick,an excellent starting point for security related items ishttp://www.wilderssecurity.com/index.phpThey also should have a link for a program specialized on removing Norton stuff from your HD.
