little Acars Atis qwerk last night!

Winds on my arrival were 150@6, Acars Atis showed 50@6. It's seems to be missing a digit :)

If you haven't flown since can you attach your logs. Or if you notice it again.

Here are the logs, I'm sorry I should have added them before!

Hi Dave,

This was the picture I took of the Acars Atis and the ASN window last night.

In the Acars it shows 50@6 knts

Whoa, yeah, I can see that. Can't explain it but I can see it! :lol:

Is that from the same flight for which you supplied the log file?

I'll double check but I can't see how it missed a digit if it logged it correctly :shock:

Hi Dave

Yes it was taken last night and relates to the logs I have uploaded. I admit it was very odd, hence me taking a snap of it :)

Not wishing to muddy the water but take a look at the times of the information on the snapshots. On one it's 12.45 and on the other 20.29. Maybe something amiss here?

That might be because I set a earlier sim time than I was flying in real time.

But check out the Zulu times in the two windows 12.02 and 12.45 Zulu times.

Remember that the kneeboard only refreshes its content when it is closed and reopened.
Edit: Or is this the separate window thingy? Did you request multiple reports?
