I just checked and it said "9 corridor points are set".

I am using Active Sky, but I am not connecting it to PSX.  I just use it for visual weather when taking off and landing. 

I don't use Acceleration, maybe that is a contributing factor.

I'm sorry, this situ is of no help. It's too late :-)

One more question, to be sure your PSX nav database has found your corridor waypoints: On your Corridor page, do you see the message "9 corridor points are set"?

When you use this airline text format that has no lat/lon data but just waypoint names, PSX needs to find the related lat/lon data in the sim's nav database. This problem cannot occur when you use an airline text format that has lat/lon data. If any lat/lon data cannot be found in the database, there'll be an error message and the entire corridor will be removed from the simulation.

When the corridor is OK and embedded in the simulation, you can see the corridor (magenta clouds) on the Instructor's map when "Met" is selected.

I just flew along your corridor points (partially with time acceleration), and my wind data on the aircraft agreed with the corridor data within circa 1% (which is perfect) during cruise, and within circa 3% during descent (also fine).

Are you using any add-on that might be injecting weather data into PSX?

From experience yes, it is harder to dis-engage A/B 4 than A/B 2. You do need more pressure for higher settings.

Bode,

I'll take a look at your situ tonight. Perhaps someone will get to it sooner than me.

Bode- just checking, in re. "Just as I level at 110, I start seeing lightning in the windshield and next thing I know I've got numerous failures that ultimately I was unable of overcome", was this PSX stand alone, or were you using a scenery generator and AS as well?

This is the file after I have landed and cleaned up the aircraft.

I can provide the flight plan and route file if that is needed.

This is the situation file for KSFO-KAUS.  After I land I delete the payload.  I can provide the route file and flight plan if that will help.

Three alternatives.

1. Upload the file to the hosting service of your choice, such as dropbox, and link to it.

2. Upload your situ here: https://aerowinx.com/board/index.php?topic=1744.0 and link to it in a forum post.

3. Copy & paste it into a forum reply, surrounded by the "Insert Code" tags, like this:

How do I attach a situation file?
