A350-900, incorrect ETA calculations v1.1.6

[Balint]

Dear developers,

I am joining the many other users reporting the bug of the FMS' ETA calculations being erroneous. At one point in the flight the ETA calculations started to behave strangely and was estimating landing times that were minutes away from current time or just simply showing ETA overhead all the waypoints which were in the past.

Please see the screenshot below and observe the ETA's at each waypoint showing to be in the past compared to the current time.

I really hope this could be fixed finally and for all as it's ruining the experience for many users and it really does not do any good to iniBuilds reputation either.

I hope this is taken in a constructive way.

Kind regards,

Balint

Hi,

Lately I have been experiencing the same issue, I have found though that if you select in the fmgs Position > Time and you insert the utc difference for your arrival, than you get the correct ETA updated in the F-PLN page. 

The problem comes when you exit the Position page, the ETA will start again to come back minute by minute (at least in my case). If you select back the position page, the eta once again will be updated showing correct values.

Hope this helps the community and the developers to fix this issue.

I can confirm your observations. Issue discussed also here:

The simplest solution I found was to go to position->time.   just change to manual then back to auto.   fixes all the times in the flight plan.  But it will eventually go wrong again, then you have to do it again.
