    Flightlog -Display Unit

    in EFB v1 (Read only, no longer supported)

    Posted

    You may reset the recognition at any time if you shut down the engine(s) of the aircraft while on the ground.

     

    If I shut the engine(s) down I am still unable to change the 'Block OFF time', if for some reason I am late taxiing from the gate.

     

    The only way I can reset the time is by cancelling my original flight plan and reactivating again.

     

    So as far as I can see, those Buttons are really redundant.

     

    Thanks

    Two Flight Plan Questions

    in EFB v1 (Read only, no longer supported)

    Hello Neal,

     

    Even I don't know where OPTV or what it does.....Anyway, load your flight plan as Dave suggested, then select your departing airfield. Providing you have your Online network enabled in EFB then you should see other aircraft located at various gates or in the progress of taxiing. Mine are displayed as magenta aircraft. Just select a gate which is empty and connect to VATSIM/IVAO and off you go.

     

    Hope this helps.

    Problem with my Flight Plans in FSINN when using EFB

    in EFB v1 (Read only, no longer supported)

    Hello Urs,

     

    Thanks for your pointers.

     

    I can overcome the problem if I uncheck 'Create Garmin GPS flight plans' in the Display Unit /Settings/Miscellaneous.

     

    You are right, when EFB changes the FSX flight plan, FSInn mirrors the change.

     

    Okay, with the option 'unchecked' no changes are made to the FSInn flight plan.

     

    If you are using the Garmin GPS with the option 'checked' then any change you enter in your flight plan, you must remember to reload the original flight plan in FSInn otherwise it will show ALL waypoints as 'DCT' removing any airway idents.

     

    I often wondered, when on VATSIM as a controller, why some of the flight plans included all the intersection waypoints. They could be using EFB and are not aware of the stealth changes. It is possible the same could be happening when using Squawk Box.

     

    Hope this make sense!

     

    Regards

    Is anyone else having this problem?

     

    Scenerio.......

     

    I am using FSX/FSINN and planning a flight from GCLA-LXGB

     

    I set up the flight plan in FSINN to show 'KORAL UG5 SONSO UN871 OSDAM UB28 BARPA'

    So far so good....

     

    I start EFB and load a FP from FSX which also shows 'KORAL UG5 SONSO UN871 OSDAM UB28 BARPA' . Great!

     

    However, as soon as I select a SID in EFB, in this case a KORA2U it automatically changes my FP in FSINN and shows...

     

    ' [ALT] ARACO TFN LARYS LZR KORAL SONSO ESS NIRAL OSDAM ROMSO TNG BARPA'.

    In otherwords it expands the SID, deletes the airways, and adds all the route intersections.

     

    Is there a way I can stop EFB from changing my original flight plan in FSINN? It makes the flight plan look very unprofessional.

     

    The same happens when I add a STAR

     

    I expect there is a simple answer which I have overlooked.

     

     

    Thanks
