Hello.I ran into the same problem. For me updating FSUPIC solved the problem (as described here:http://forum.avsim.net/topic/356533-stuck-or-invalid-winds-fix-here/). I hope this helps.

Hi,first of all - I'm not a native speaker but i hope I'm able to describe my problem. After 30-40 minutes of flying on cruising altitude (with PMDGs NGX) and stable wind conditions (e.g. 290/60) the wind speed drops instantly to 5 kts and the direction begins to shift rapidly (e.g. from 250-253 and back - multiple times). This goes on for a couple of minutes and suddenly the wind speed goes back to 60 kts and the plane crashes. I did everything written in the README like adjusting the turbulence scale and disabling turbulence effects but it didn't work.I also tried flying with and without previously entering a flight plan into AS2012 but without success. I'm not using FSUPIC.Any suggestions?Best regards

Hi.I'm sorry but I'm not sure about all the differences. Maybe I launched the load manager before starting FSX for the first time after the initial installation (and got the "not connected" message). Another difference to the initial installation was that I installed some liveries before running FSX for the first time.Last but not least after both! installations I had some problems with changing the in game settings in the addon menu as described in the tutorial document on page 2 ("...Displaysʼ to change ʻWeight Indicatorsʼ to KGs....."). To force FSX to keep these settings I had to start FSX as administrator. I'm sorry for my bad English.Regards,Tobi>Tobi, >>Any clue you can give us on that.

Hi.After reinstalling FSX, both service packs and the MD-11 the fuel slider works for me :-)RegardsTobi

I'm sorry. I updated my previous post. Yes, FSX was running while I tried to move the slider. I think it is the same problem as discussed in the other thread You mentioned above (german FSX version and german Vista32). RegardsTobi >Are you running FSX and the MD-11 while you're trying this? >The sim does need to be active and running for it to work...

Hi. I have the same problem. The slider is grey and unmovable while FSX is running and the MD-11 loaded.Any suggestions?(System: Vista 32 bit- German)Thanks in advanceTobi>How do you load fuel using the load manager? Mine stays at>'Zero'>>Cant move the slider at all>>many Thanks>>>Now my printers run out of ink, so can't print tutorial..:-(
