    Sorry for the delay. Holidays and stuff.

    I will work on it. I did find that this seems to happens when I don't have Active Sky started and the weather setting has Active Sky selected.

    When wanting to just use the Sim's VFR weather, I forget to change the selection off of Active Sky to Xplane*.rwx

    I'll send a support file when I get it again.

    Happy New Year

    Ray,

    I quickly launched from Bradley airport filed to KBOS, climbed to 11k. had a Robuc STAR entered and then changed to the JFUND2 Star different runway. it took it perfectly.

    I then did a direct to JFUND it followed that. So I then changed back to the ROBUC3 Star into 33L at Boston and it changed the plan and directed me to RUIZE with no problem. EFB did say it couldn't calculate the vertical because I was lower than STARs expected but other than that, a perfect change.

    I wonder if you need to reload the plane?????.

    Good luck

    BTW, I forgot how easy and nice this plane is to fly. Need to do more GA flying. Been doing corporate jets for awhile now.

    Good to hear that it's working. I fly mostly in the US, but I'm sure you've flown some intricate STAR's in the EU. I know I did into Amsterdam a couple of times. ;-)

    IMHO, I've found that most of the FMS's (G1000, FMC,....) seem to be buggy when trying to change something on the fly.

    The EFB has saved me a bunch of times after a change to the plan if only to give me the correct heading to fly while I update the FMS.

    I now find I cant fly most planes without it up on my other monitor.

    Enjoy

    OK, I just tried you issue and found no problem with using either the EFB DIR TO or the Da-62 G1000 Direct to key.

    Both took the change correctly and the aircraft followed.

    Is this with any route/flight plan or a specific one?

    Can you correctly activate another way point from the flight plan?

    I've certainly changed STAR's when ATC (Vatsim) has issued a change en-route but I always use the sync heading hold procedure I said above.

    Maybe its the Da-62, I know I had sound issues with it, that eventually cleared.

    good luck

    I have the aircraft but haven't flown it in a long time. Flying XP and 2020. My SOP for changing the FP while flying is, center the heading bug, go to heading, update, check the FP,select the correct waypoint and go back to GPS/Nav.  But I'll give it a try soon and let you know if I duplicate the problem.

    I usually pull flight plans to the EFB from Simbrief, modify them for the correct rwys, SID, and Stars, then save them for P3D and ActiveSky.

    Is there a exporter for X-Plane's default FMS?  Which like Simbriefs downloader, would put it in the X Plane \Output\FMS plans.

    Presently I pull the flight plan in via the Co-route EFB.

    Thanks

    Is there a way to correct the ILS RWY06 for KTEB from the NY Airports v2 X scenery?

    Gentlemen,

    Is there a way to correct the ILS RWY06 for KTEB from the NY Airports v2 X DEMO scenery?

    It's a hub for one of my online VA's and of course I get that approach 80% of the time. So I manually put in the correct frequency and add the VINGS fix to the flightplan.

    Not a big deal, just wondering if it's possible.

    Thanks again for all the hard work you guys do with this EFB. As other's have said here, it's become essential for flying.

    I'm a Huge supporter online and SHOUT out it's praises whenever asked (or even when not asked 😄).

    Hi Ron,

    it seems that this is a very rare bug in the TCAS system of EFB. I could not yet nail it down but it seems that under certain circumstances the TCAS is triggered by the own aircraft from the "snapshot" traffic. Thanks for reporting.

    thanks Headley, but I pretty much only fly online so  my AI setting is always at 0.

    As I said it's not a big deal because is not aural, but like in RW or in Sim on landing or takeoff hopefully I'd have enough Sit A to know what's around me.

    I did just try to duplicate it at another airport online or off, and of course it was fine🤔.

    So, I'll try to recreate the scenario from my snapshot and let you know.

    Keep the great updates coming.

    Ron

    Ron,

     

    The picture show a traffic close by behind you, 200 ft above you... You can't see it unless you have a rearwards view camera...😀

    Funny but no other aircraft was near me and I will assume now that there is no answer to why this is happening. Luckily I can ignore them because I know what's around me. I'd just like to know if it's something with using Vatsim (I fly online 99.9% and I'll test it offline shorty.) or just a mild bug.

    Hi Ron,

     

    Whenever there is coflicting traffic you will be warned by the simple TCAS according to the description in the Client Manual Chapter 7.1.5 Traffic. You can also turn it off in the Profile Settings.

    I understand  and appreciate the traffic warning system in this case I'm glad it doesn't have a aural alert. If you look at the attached picture I have no conflicting traffic. I'm over water with no one below or above me. I've had this happen on multiple takeoff's and landing. Just landed at KPSP and had it happen.

    thanks

    Ron
