Post subject: | Clearance too slow in MSFS |
Hello Dave and everyone. I filed this flightplan, using AIRAC 2402: KIAH BNDTO CRGER EWM J4 WLVRN ESTWD HLYWD KLAX KIAH scenery is FSDT, KLAX is default MSFS. It's the first time in MSFS I fly to anywhere in California. However, after starting the flight and connecting PF3, it takes up to 5 minutes until it's finally connected. Also, after requesting clearance, it's another 5 minutes until I hear my F/O requesting it, and 5 more minutes until I receive it. I restarted my computer, regenerated PF3 database (I dread doing so, because it takes up to 30 minutes), but PF3 is still sluggish. I pushed on, after switching to Ground (from Clearance), everything went back to normal. This didn't happen to me last flight (LIMC-KIAH, which went uneventfully), and I don't remember having this problem since I got PF3 (back in 2017). How can I fix this? I'm attaching the whole Logs folder, just in case. Before my second attempt, I wiped it out, so it's all fresh. I couldn't finish my flight because of real world issues; that's why it may appear incomplete. |

So is the included log from a flight where you actually had this problem? |

Yes, it's from this flight. I didn't finish it, although. Edit: I deleted and redownloaded the flight plan from Simbrief, and didn't get the clearance delay this time. Strange... Can a corrupted flightplan have these effects? |

It looks like the problem was with PF3 trying to connect to the online weather station and it was failing... hence the wait time... but the wait time wasn't 5 minutes it was 1.5 minutes. However, if you now say it's working okay it must be due to the connectivity issue has now been cleared. |

Thanks for your reply! That makes sense, and redownloading the flightplan was just a coincidence. So, in case that happens again, restarting PF3 and starting a flightplan without online weather in PF3 could be a workaround? |

No you really don't want to be flying with no live weather because PF3 can't detect any weather/winds except that directly around you. I would say check you internet connection and see if that's okay and if so restart PF3. I'm only guessing though as I've never come across this issue before |
