Dave; The Displayer is listed as v4.1.0.1 in the executable's properties, and the exe is dated 12/31/2021. I chatted with John Dowson, and he determined that the reason the path coming from FSUIPC was the server local path rather than the UNC path was due to not having the correct MSFS folder shared...

OK, I've found the problem. I looked at the FS path in FSUIPC offset 3E00 via WideFS (v7.160) on the client machine, and the path to MSFS is reported as "C:\MSFS\Packages\" That's the local path on the server--the path reported in that offset on a WideFS client is supposed to have the UNC ...

I cannot get the PF3_Display on a networked client machine to work with MSFS. Running PF3 3.16.10 on a client machine--WideFS connects and PF3 shows a good connection to MSFS via the wingtip nav lights on the main window. The PF_Display program window comes up, but the connection lights both remain ...

Many airfields (for example South Lake Tahoe, CA - KTVL) do not have approaches to all of the runways due to terrain/obstacles/noise abatement etc...so if the field is IMC and the winds strongly favor another runway, an approach is flown to a runway with an intrument approach, and clearance is obtai...

How does the pilot determine the active rwy at an uncontrolled field in PF3?

Maybe PF3 is confused because you want to fly a SID from an uncontrolled airport? 10/20/2016 10:16:13 AM: 920 - Transcript: 'Frontier 213 Roger.

Departing West Yellowstone (KWYS) with field elevation of 6649 ft, I called FSS for clearance and got an IFR clearance with an initial climb altitude of 4000 ft (2649 ft below field elevation). Passengers very confused when I sounded the dive alarm and blew the ballast tanks. Log attached. Regards B...

One new thing in the FS world (with the introduction of convective weather in Activesky 2016) is the need to deviate from the route to keep from getting destroyed by thunderstorms being modelled along with their destructive effects. At present, it seems that setting the airway deviation distance to ...

Log attached. Departed KTVL on the RICHY5 SID...turned off the SID direct FMG VOR and requested a climb to FL240, which it gave me. A few min later still at FL240 I asked for FL320...it told me unable, maintain FL410 (my filed altitude, but I was still cleared to and level at FL240). I climbed towar...

The instructions at the top of the SID/STAR page say that the min FAF altitude is set in feet AGL...I had that set to 3500 at KJAC, and it cleared me to finals with a descent to 3500 ft (field elevation is 6451). That leads me to believe min FAF altitude should be set as MSL and not AGL. Regards Bob...
