HI,

 

First I have to say IT'S THE BEST ATC TOOL I EVER HAD. Playing in the office offline with a simulator I noticed something strange. I had an aircraft heading (I entered that in the TAG) 09. When I change the heading to 360 the plane turns right making an orbit to get to 360 though I think it should turn Left. What should I do?

 

Kind regards

In the Heading menu you have two directions(up - counterclockwise and down- clockwise on the heading rose). You have chosen 090=>100=>110...and so on...just slide the options on the other site 090=>080=>070...

I'm not sure I explained it right

What Todor is trying to say is: Move the bar left to get to 360 and not right to 360

So If I understood well by what you said

 

In the TAG when I click the heading (HDG) if I increase the numbers from 90 100 110 klp the aircraft will turn right but if I decrease the numbers 90 80 60 the will turn right

Just to clarify up = left and down = right.

 

which I kind of figured out myself last night whilsttesting the simulator session I had created, but Todor has confirmed it. Thanks Todor.

 

 

I hadn't thought to bring the simulator into work, how devious, I guess I'll haveto install euroscope on my laptop now.
