Inaccurate flight duration

Not sure that MyAAS is recording correct flt. duration.
Flt. yesterday KNTU-KSVN was 107 mins. 393nm 654 gal. fuel used
Flt today MYAT-MDSD shows only 107 mins. with aprox. 677nm. 867 gal. fuel used.
Used same a/c for both flt's. Alt. within 2,000ft. Airspeed about the same.
Sys: WinXP, FS9

Hello Steve,

Did you use higher than 1x time during the flight? MyAAS does not "record" time if time acceleration is used. Other than that any error messages? It is going to be very hard for me to troubleshoot without errors or messages of some kind.

Hey Tom,
No 1x all the way. No error message of any kind.
I was thinking maybe using wrong ver. of FSUIPC?
I had been using FSX but because of slow performance, I switch to FS9.
FS9 wouldn't accept the FSUIPC module, so I d/l'd an older version.
Could that be the problem you think?
Do you know what ver. is appropriate for FS9?
I'm closely watching another flt. (JATA Tour) to see if prob. persist.
Thanks for quick reply. :)

**EDIT- Used stop watch. At 1h56m of flt. time, MyAAS had recorded only 62 minutes. Stoped flight
and sim log shows 1.5 hrs. The pc has nothing else running, it's no even hooked up to the internet
and I stayed at 1x with no pauses although, at ramdom times and duration, I noted that aas had
"Stoped Recording" and after a min or 2 started recording again! Any clue why it's doing this??
I'm in middle of JATA Bid Tour and can only get credit w/ MyAAS flt's. :(

Are you using FSUIPC v3.x?

v4.x is ONLY for FSX

Steve - are you always flying "on line"? If so try using myAAS in "off line" mode only. Let's first see if we can isolate if the problem is on or off line use (or if it happens both ways). So perform one full flight with "on line" checked, and another without being on line.

Any yes, always be sure to use the latest FSUIPC for whatever version of FS you are running.

Also, if you can e-mail me your aasflights.aas file BEFORE you PIREP, I can adjust your time to the correct amount, just let me know correct time for the flight(s).

I used a game booster and it seems to be working better so far.
Will do more testing.
