"Hi All Just completed a flight from EGLL-KLCK and was plagued once I was at Cruise Height by inexplicable engine surges it resulted it variations in KIAS of 100 KTS and instigated the FDC to call for Flaps, this went on for about 30 minutes then settled and didn,t occur again until my descent into Rickenbacker again with the Flap Calls, just wondered if anyone else has experienced this or is it my BUG!

I've been told that actually happens sometimes over big mountains ( like the Alps etc..). I don't know if that is simulated be FS though. Try climbing higher if you can.

"Hi Mike, It happens to me quite a lot and it can be very violent too when using time compression x4. I think it is linked to sudden wind changes when running real weather prog like Active Sky. I often have to switch to manual throttle and even then it is hard to have a nap... <!--emo&;)-->[img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/wink.gif[/img]<!--endemo--> cheers"
