Thanks Urs! No I don't really fly there often because of the lack of scenery. But this one time for FNO last week, Cleveland was the departing airport and hence, found this issue. Cheers, Todd.

Anyone tried this scenery in EFB? I get double 24L runways instead of a 24L and 24C. This causes EFB to crash with an Unhandled Exception. It scans fine in the new PMDG's EFB map but Aivlasoft just yaks.

Hey Oskar, Thanks for the explanation and fix for this issue! I had no idea about the displaced threshold either. Learn something new everyday! Cheers, Todd.

Just an FYI. Posted on Navigraph forum as well. https://forum.navigraph.com/viewtopic.php?f=20&t=8740

Thanks Urs!

Hey Urs, I'm starting to really enjoy the new version. It took a while but it's starting to grow on me now. Just a couple of little things that would be nice to have in a future update. 1. Including SIDS/STARS in the lower Flight Plan field. I use this area to copy/paste to other tools(ie vPilot, ACARS, etc..) when setting up my flight. It was very handy in v.1. It would be nice to have that capability back in v.2.(Se pic below. Notice the SID "LOTO3Q" is not included in the highlighted summarised flight route below. It would be nice to have these included again.) 2. This one may have been mentioned many times. Including the online ATC in order of sequence would be nice to have again. Maybe just having it in order on the Radio page would be nice. 3. This is more of a bug I believe. I cannot "Set FPL" when selecting a RWY/SID in the DEP tab when P3D is not loaded or even on the the scenario page. It has to be fully loaded and on the ground in order to "Set FPL". I can do it all on the ARR page without the sim running. Thanks again Urs! Cheers!

The update worked for me. Thanks for the quick turn around Urs!

Just wanted to add there are two other files where scenery is listed: \ProgramData\Lockheed Martin\Prepar3D v4\add-ons.cfg \Users\user\AppData\Roaming\Lockheed Martin\Prepar3D v4\add-ons.cfg Get these added some way and we should be good.

Just curious on the fixes/changes... Thanks, Todd.

Wow! That's pretty sad but not surprising. You get what you pay for...or don't pay for in this case.

Thanks for the info Urs!

Hey Urs, May I ask what this connection is suppose to provide us?

Seeing the same problem here.

Hey Urs, I do remember, a while back, I posted an issue with a large GS variance between EFB and the latest IvAp (IVAO) client. Here are the previous posts: http://www.aivlasoft.com/support/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=1160&hilit=ground+speed http://www.aivlasoft.com/support/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=870&hilit=ground+speed I'll get back to you after doing some TAS comparisons. I never thought of obtaining those readings... ***Update: A couple of tests. Online AC #1: EFB reading= 422kts (EFB set to GS) Actually: GS 431kts TAS 447kts IAS 277kts Online AC #2: EFB = 439kts (EFB set to GS) Actual: GS 447kts IAS 292kts So far it doesn't look like it's even TAS on EFB. I'll ask for more tonight. Cheers, Todd

Hey Urs, I've tried what you suggested. I've noticed that it is actually much closer to the actual speed of others than originally stated. It seems both IAS and GS on EFB is averaging around 15-20kts more than what the other online pilots are doing. For example: DAL2022 was seeing a GS of 535 and on the EFB AC monitor was reading it as 553kts. Around the same difference for the IAS. So it must of been one of the patches of vPilot that may have reduced the speed differences... not sure. But it has been awhile since I really looked into it. Thanks, Todd.

Gents, It's been a while! Hope all is going well with v2. Quick observation when flying VATSIM using vPilot. I've notice that the speeds seem to be quite a bit off using GS or IAS when viewing other online traffic. I've tested with a few pilots online and what they report to me for GS is a few hundred knots less than what I see in EFB using Ground Speed selection. When using IAS setting, their actual GS is a couple hundred knots higher than what I see. Just wondering if that is a known issue with vPilot or am I missing something? Thanks, Todd.

Thanks Urs!

I too am seeing this issue today. It was also happening last night.

Hey Urs, Screenshot sent to your "info" email address. Thanks!

Hey Guys, I remember this being an issue with VATSIM and was fixed. I noticed that IVAO is having the same issue where the online traffic's speed is quite high compared to their actual. I'm currently flying with a buddy now and noticed his speed on EFB is reporting as 898kts when his actual ground speed is 500kts. Just thought I'd let you know. Thanks, Todd.

Found the issue from reading a previous post. Seems they're using FS9 AFCAD instead of FSX. Recompiled to FSX and all is well now. Thanks!

Greetings, Just came across a weird issue. I've installed a new freeware airport addon, Cairo 2011 v1.0 Freeware Scenery, and for some reason EFB is not picking up the new install. Still only adds the default FSX one. This addon has all the new runways, parking & taxi ways. Works fine within FSX and FSC. Checked the log and there were no errors.

Thanks for the update! Again, just an FYI, I didn't experience this issue in the previous version(s). Speeds were fine in versions prior to 1.3.2 (if this helps at all). Thanks!

807 km/h = 435.74514 knots

Affirmative. If I go in and change the speed indicator to km/h within EFB, then it indicates a speed much closer to the actual value. It almost seems that by default km/h is used. If you want kts, you need to select km/h in the EFB settings.
