iFly GPS Forum

Most of the "Instruments" in my Extended Instrument Group are missing and I can't restore them.

Even if I select "Add Instruments: and then "Save changes to the Current Layout 'Extended'" - the "Instruments" don't show up when I select the Extended Instrument Layout.

Previously, I was able to add or delete Instruments and save the changes.

Thanks in advance for you help.

Thank you so much for responding - sorry I didn't back to you sooner.. Several things came up plus I wanted to get more information for you.  I hope the following information gives you a clue as to what's happening.

Instruments are definitely missing from the Extended Group..

I have a flight plan loaded from KSWF - KALB.When the Basic Instrument Group is Loaded, the following instruments show:

Final     Dist:Final     ETE:Final

If I select the Extended Instrument Group, exactly the same group shows.

Then, if I click the "Customize" Button, and I add Dist:Next and ETE:Next, the additional instruments show in the customizing view.

But if I save the modified Extended Layout by selecting "Save Current" , No changes are saved and the Extended Group is the same as the Basic Group.

I tried to include some screen shots - but thet''re much bigger than the max size for the forum.

iFly seems to work fine on my iPhone but not the iPad.  I'm running ios 12.3.1 on both devices.

Should I just delete the app and re-install it?  Hope you can help.

Thank you.

Thank you

Mike,

Thanks.  That solved the problem. 

I'm currently simulating a flight and all the instruments look OK. However, the ETA:Final doesn't show anything.  Is it supposed to show the ETA to destination in simulation mode?

Also, as you approach a waypoint where a course change is required, the Turn instrument indiacates when to start the turn, but is there an instrument that shows what the next course to the next waypoint is before you get to the turn point?  It seems like you would have to check the flight plan to see the next course.

One more question please.  If you're flying along on a flight plan, and you want to see the approach plates for a certain airport but you don't know where it is on the map (so you cant touch the airport to see the plates), what's the best way to see plates for an airport that's not on your flight plan -- assuming you don't want to change your flight plan?

Thank you again

Manny
