Hi Dave I'm still having problems with erroneous ATIS information when flying any of the Digital Aviation Piper Cheyenne models (no issues whith any other stock or add-on aircraft). I have done a bit more testing and investigating the logs and I see this difference between using the default Cessna 172 and the Cheyenne (flying from Munich (EDDM in these examples)): Stock C172 23/01/2011 19:02:22: 340 - ATIS Weather retrieved for EDDM using the ICAO 23/01/2011 19:02:25: 470 - ATIS Active Runway determined by AI Traffic at EDDM ....... 23/01/2011 19:02:25: 560 - Transcript: 'Munich Airport Information Lima Weather at 1145 Zulu winds 269 at 4 visibility greater than 20 miles. Sky condition 3 thousand 2 hundred Broken 16 thousand 7 hundred Overcast . Temperature minus 2 . Dewpoint minus 5 . Altimeter 1023 . ILS Runway 8R in use . ILS Runway 8L in use . ILS Runway 26L in use . ILS Runway 26R in use, Landing departing runway 8R in use, Landing departing runway 8L in use, Landing departing runway 26L in use, Landing departing runway 26R .

I don't know whether this will help to throw some light on the problem (running out of ideas fast here). Pleae let me know if you have a 'Eureka' moment....any assistance would be greatly received. Been using PFE combined with FDC really successfully with the iFly 737 and I would really love to get this combination working with my favourite turbo prop aircraft. All the best Owen |

Well I have absolutely no idea why a different aircraft produces differ ant atis info. All pfe does is interrogate fduipc, the aircraft in use makes no difference as far as I'm concerned Sent from my Samsung Galaxy S |
