I tell you what, this whole MCAS and other changes, have thrown the coding for quite the adventure...the cascading changes are unpredictable given the legacy programming involved...

trying to smash these changes into the FMS....

in debugging, many more legacy errors have cropped up, this has profound changes in the FMS programming, tracing back to the legacy V1.0...how this reacts with current programming, and current coded procedures....****.
I fear there will be unpredictable results when certain combinations of conditions occur...skip tracing this ...fk. I actually found an old ref to a simple radius of the Earth, before the 1984 geoid...who knows what function looked up that number...

AC need a new FMS, fk v14 or whatever, just cert an FMS with todays tech, not 1978 and a 486 processor....the ac deserve better.

2019V1.0!
