My flight marked as cheated!

Post by Bahman » Fri Jun 27, 2008 2:16 pm

I had a flight from OIII to RJAA with Boeing 747-400
I took off at 01:24 (GMT)
when flight finished, I checked my profile and and noticed that my flight has marked as cheated.
when I rechecked the flight facts, I saw that the duration of flight is : 01:27 (1.5h) !!!
but on the flight, It took me more than 7 hours!

this is the link to the report : http://flynet.turksim.org/index.php5?st ... 981&p=9096

what's the problem ?!!

We accepted the flight. I have seen this on other flights where the time is off and we almost always accept them. But to try to figure out the cause, are you using any utilities or flying on any multiplayer networks while doing this flight? Which version of FS are you using?

Hiya :)
I had this on my last completed flight as well, except that my logged flight took 27 minutes instaed of nearer 2.5 hours, and subsequent to that flight I have been unable to complete any more due the client crashing part way through the process. One thing I have noted though, is that when I try and book a flight of late, it takes 2 attempts to book, the first attemt gets to the point where I expect the briefing document page, but the screen reverts back to the routes available page, without showin the booked flight.
Is this a possible clue to the cause of both my problem with the client crashing mid flight, or the reported problems relating to missing time?

No. I didn't use any utilities during that flight and and it wasn't a multiplayer networks flight.
I'm using FS 2004.

This is a known issue where there is some bug between FS, FSUIPC, the FlyNET Client and other utilities running that's causing the flight time to be misreported. Originally we put in the time test because ppl were using slewing, FSNav or other similar techniques to teleport there aircraft to another airport and collect the revenue for the flight, without actually flying it, so we try to detect when a flight is flown faster than the aircraft could possibly fly, but we have seen this so often that unless there is some other problem with the flight (like using too little fuel) it will be approved.

It was just the misreported hours, fuel usage seams fine, flight approved.
