NoobX 3 Posted July 6, 2021 Share Posted July 6, 2021 Hi, During my last flight with CRJ on MSFS, I tried to take a deeper look at the wind effect on calculations and it looks like nothing happens when updating the values. I updated the CLB, CRZ and DES component, and for example, the FOD was always the same, even switching wind component on the FMS from T90 to H90. Could anyone confirm the same behavior?

Danny Vincken 21 Posted July 14, 2021 Share Posted July 14, 2021 seems to me you're right as nothing seems to happen when changing the windfactor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's about the calculations, the fms does not calculate an new fuel prediction on destination regardless of the windfactor that is entered in the fms.

Exactly. On 7/14/2021 at 6:30 PM, Mathijs Kok said: And are you the wind actually is changed? Here, the problem isn't about the "live" wind component, but the "computed" one based on data inserted in the FMS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
