What does ATC actually say?

They say "No Speed Restriction" . . .

It certainly works here, mine is set at 25%, although most of what I fly couldn't achieve 250 on the downhill with the wind behind them!

Hi Bob,

You need to email Dave directly to resolve this, guidance notes are at:

Best regards,

Me again . . .

Everything is working as it should now. I'm not 100% sure what I did but possibly an update of the airport database did the trick.

All good now anyway.

Update . . .

Hold fire on this issue for now, I may have resolved it - will advise after next flight.

What a/c are you using John? Just wondering if it's a/c related because it couldn't possibly be something I missed or didn't do correctly, as you well know of course :lol: Default DC-3 (with MAAM-Sim panel) first time round, Rick Piper Vickers Viscount 700 (with Fraser McKay panel) the second time....

Update - can confirm this is still the situation in v3.21.140, Dave.

Best regards,

John

UPDATE.

Well there's a worrying thing or two.

1. I hadn't forgotten to make the necessary changes... applied them in 3.21.135 infact!

2. It's not working for you

I can confirm I am on 135 but not the latest (yet). Perhaps I should try that?

Thanks for the reminder. Yes, you are correct. Martin C had already raised this with me and I should have fixed it already but it slipped my mind... which happens soooooooo frequently these days. Now, where was I, oh yeah, I've written it down now so provided I don't lose my notepad it'll be done. ...

I noticed today that when PF3 sets the NAV1 automatically for an ILS landing, its sets the runway direction to true rather than taking into account magnetic variation, which was 5 degrees different at EGJJ (263 instead of 268 if I remember rightly). I adjusted it manually. Landing is not my best poi...

I think that Mike, one of our PF3 users, has suggested a method that would accomplish this, or very nearly so. On the PF3 waypoint page you can determine the point at which you want to begin descent and then set all subsequent altitudes to the final desired altitude. You will either be cleared down...
