For reasons unconnected with AIFP I was checking something with a set of flight plans I had.
What I found was an anomally or two.
For reasons unknown to myself I chose to load the traffic file to check something rather than the raw text files. What I got was some warnings in a Validation Report. This I thought was weird as I got nothing when I compiled the plans earlier.
What I thought I would do is check out the warnings listed. The first thing I noticed was that flight plan numbers in the compiled version seemed to be in a random order. This wasn't the case in traffic files produced in earlier versions, I checked some randomly.
The second thing was that the warnings that were picked up were genuine. I have Minimum Time Arr->Dep set to 3 mins so as to pick up possible TNG issues that have been well documented over the years.
Sure enough the arrival time for the TNG leg was 1/15:17:35 and the departure time of the departure home leg was 1/15:18:49 in the raw txt files. In the compiled version both times were 1/15:18.
So in a nutshell I think I discovered two issues. One the compiled version now has the plans sorted on something other than the AC#. Two the warnings are not being picked up in the raw text files.
For your verification, I have attached the raw files and the compiled file.
If I have missed something obvious or need anything else from me please let me know.
