Heading bug

Hi Guys

 

When I do Shift+z in FS2002 the heading shown is 33 more than my actual heading. This has started suddenly. I have not added anything to it and it has been working faultlessly for the past couple of years.

 

Any ideas?

Same with me in FS2004 yesterday?

Go into main cockpit view and select `D` this resets the aircraft comp[Mod - Happy Thoughts].which should then read the same as shift+Z

Hello,

 

often this problem in FS2002 results from an AFCAD2 file, which is brought into the sim via a new scenery installation. AFCAD2 files, often identifyable because their filenames start with "AF2_" and end with ".BGL" are usable in FS2004 only. In FS2002 they can cause the described problems.

best regards,

How would I go about doing a seach for these files? I still have this heading Bug problem and D doesnt seem to help any
