Hello Dave,

This was my latest flight. I feel it went pretty good, although i was a bit high. At what distance should my latest waypoint be before the airport?

Cheers,

Rob.

Slightly better but you were way too high. I notice your original flight plan has the last waypoint set at 16,000 and it's only 36 miles from the airport. PF3 had reduced this to 12,000.

Again I have to mention that you're not getting any real weather in PF3 because you're running with no internet connection. This is going to cause problems at some point and you'll probably end up landing into oncoming AI traffic

Hello Dave,

Thanks for your quick reply. I don't understand how i can have no internet connection, because i have internet. I don't know why PF3 doesn't have the connection. It has access in my firewall.
Could you please help me with this?

Cheers,

Rob.

Please go to Options #1, then select Rebuild PF3 Database and click on the first option which says

Click to open your Browser and link to Pete Dowson's support and download pages

Please let me know what happens

He4llo Dave,

I am doing a flight now with the latest Beta. I have reached cruise altitude. Now it keeps saying to remain at fl350. I am not touching any keys. I wonder what is the reason. Yesterday was the same, but i didn't finish my flight. I will finish this flight and post the log. Hopefully you can explain this.

Cheers,

Rob.

Hi Rob,

Well, firstly I see you had a good flight and approach... well done.

I also see the online weather is now working, so did you have a problem with the internet connection? Did you try the test I suggested you to try in my earlier post?

Regarding you getting nagged for not being at the correct altitude, please go to Options #2. then select 'Advanced Options' and then 'View P3D / MSFS Options'. On the next page select 'Use Calibrated Altitude Offset' and finally SAVE the changes
