BST?  Boston Standard Time?

[quote]BST?

i will switch it back to GMT when it changes back.

I'm GMT -7 here in california daylight savings, what does that equate to with BST?

..let me think now....

'Frisco time  is BST - 7 hours...

...so...

I reckon...BST = 'Frisco time + 7 hours.... ;).... ;D....!

8 PM BST (GMT) Supper time in the evening in England = 1PM Dinner time in Frisco...(count backwards).... [smiley=thumbsup.gif]...!

Make sure you've had your Mid-Day Dinner before you wheel your trusty Steed out of the Hangar.. :)...!

Keep this handy around the take-off time...;)...>>>

..it depends how many counting fingers you've got during the change over between British Summer Time and Greenwich Mean Time, Doug...

I have to keep checking my hands....(and the ones on my trusty clock)...;)...!

.... ;D...!

I just keep a wary eye on here, around Take-off Time...>>>

At the Moment, Greg (Jet Black 1) in Texas is 6 hours (Central Time) behind us in Rainy England... ...!

No wonder you chaps get confused. It would be much easier to work in GMT/UTC. http://www.worldtimeserver.com/current_time_in_UTC.aspx

The biggest problem for us (over here), is when the Chaps (over there), organise their Flights for 8 PM (their time)....

We have to count forward 5, 6, or 7 hours, which places us (over here) tucked up safely in our beds, cuddling our Teddy Bears... ...!

P.S. Note my great affection for using AM and PM rather than that confusing 24 hour clock malarkey... 8-)...!

That's what I mean. It would be much easier for everyone if you ALL work in GMT/UTC. That's the way it's done in the real world. Imagine the confusion if airlines worked to local time. Click my link to see the current time in GMT/UTC ---> http://www.worldtimeserver.com/current_time_in_UTC.aspx

Silly old sod. That just confuses things even more.

'Trubble is, it rarely relates to our differing local times, (the time on our wall clocks), when ready for a Multiplayer Flight..... ...!

...fer instance....my clock in my wall tells me its 10:42 AM...but the GMT/UTC Clocks says its 9:42 AM...

...silly old GMT/UTC Clock!...  ;D...!

The same problem exists for them, (over there), during their Daylight Saving Hours... ...!

...24 hour clocks...
You would not believe the number of times I have watched my train at Paddington Station disappearing into the distance while I am trying to convert the 24 Clock time into the proper time on my Wrist Watch: eg; AM And PM...even whilst I was in the Army... ...!

I always check the flight sim server, but it doesn't help me if I don't know what time to check

Should be no problem if you ALL work in GMT as I suggested. This clever little gizmo was created specifically for this sort of thing. http://www.worldtimeserver.com/convert_time_in_UTC.aspx
