Wake Turbulence Categories not found

[Christian Geissler 1128552]

Good morning,

 

Yesterday, i controlled some hours in Frankfurt and i had a problem with the departure list.

ES do not load the WTC of the different ac types. There is always a ? under WTC.

First, i tried to reload the aircraft.txt, but the problem was still there.

What can you see at the FP strip? The category is displayed there too. If you see there an (unknown) after the AC type then surely something is wrong with your aircraft.txt file. Can you open it? What do you have there for the plane type in question?

Hi Gergely,

 

Thats my Flightstrip example:

A320 = AIRBUS, A-320 (medium landplane, 2xjet)

 

Hm i think the txt files is ok. i can open it with the editor.

It looks like this:

A002	LG1P	IRKUT	A-002
A1	ML1P	DOUGLAS	Skyraider
A10	ML2J	FAIRCHILD	A-10 Thunderbolt 2

Is it still showing "?" after reloading EuroScope? Does it shows "?" on all tags and lists?

Christian,

 

If you have

A320 = AIRBUS, A-320 (medium landplane, 2xjet)

then your aircrafts.txt file is OK. The information is there and compiled. Then you should check what is set for displaying. Open the general settings / page1 and in the second set of controls you can see the WTC symbols. As default they should be L-light, M-medium, H-heavy and J-A380. These letters are displayed on the TAG.
