It's possible that you're seeing the same problem I have here where the wind (and visibility) gets set incorrectly on an apparently random basis. I've reported it a few times now but no-one else seems to be experiencing, or perhaps noticing it. In one or two of the more recent a/c I've done I've included a simple 2d instrument to show the wind speed and direction and this makes it clearly apparent when the wind (and visibility) setting are incorrect. does anything happen if you open the weather settings dialogue and repeatedly apply the settings? (you don't need to change any of the settings for the conditions to change) LeeE _______________________________________________ Flightgear-devel mailing list Flightgear-devel@flightgear.org http://mail.flightgear.org/mailman/listinfo/flightgear-devel 2f585eeea02e2c79d7b1d8c4963bae2d
