OnCourse Software

Small update to the above:

It does not seem to make any difference whether using an old (v4) or the current pf3_display.exe, none of the Ctrl-Shift shortcuts seem to work any more. Confirm that "Use PF3/Web Display" is checked in Options 2.

Doug - you are not alone. I tried to use a shortcut for the first time in ages today, without response, then looked there. I have no idea how long it has been like that. Perhaps that is why I can't get the free-standing taxi gauge to work too. I'm going to guess that a Microsoft Update has done sumt...

Thanks, Martin!

Just had a quick moment to do a more thorough test this morning before dashing out.

Here we are, along with a printout below showing the route the TGS gauge appeared to be taking me. route.jpg It seems it ignored a few of the turns and this led me off course somewhat, including up a dead end, and joining the runway a turn too soon, although that did no harm. It seems to be a consis...

Morning, Dave, Has the TGS system been simplified in the last year or so? Recently I have noticed that the TGS gauge and the words from the First Officer guiding you around airports seem to fix their mind on a point several turns away, giving me a short cut across the fields (well, not quite fields ...
