A question, mite have been asked befor but here goes.
In fs2k2 when setting a flight up the default seems tobe night time always...Is it possible to make daytime the default setting.  As fed up keep finding myself on the end of the runway in the dark 8) 8) 8)

As I said in another post, I am inebriated, so I will answer your question tomorrow.

You should be getting your normal time wherever you are.  Seems really strange to me, but then again, I'm sloshed . . . ;D

CHEERS . . .  8)

I feel happy, but that's about the extent of my own inebriation.

I live in the UK and my local time on the game is always 1 hour different from GMT - which doesn't really make sense. Is it because of Daylight savings or something? ???

Blimey Liam - you may live in the UK but on which planet?

In the Spring we put the clocks forward by 1 hour - so it's then 1 hour different from GMT. In the Autumn (Fall ) we... need I go on??

Ok Liam I just read in some site that there is a bug in FS2k2  that Microsoft set the difference in time to 4 hours between Europe and USA instead of the 5 we have now. This can cause problems with AI flight plans that will cause an  AI plane to come in 1 hour later or 1 hour earlyer that it should have, but they said this is something you have to put up with.....I'm no expert just quoting what i read..... 8)  8)  8)

It has actually been like it ever since i got the game, which is a long while ago - well over a year.
And i'm pretty sure it's been an hour different since i've had it. :-[
