ETE and ETA L variables useless values - Flight Engineer - 06-15-2026
TDSGTNXI_TotalETE
The total ETE variable shows completely meaningless values. It should display the following:
- ete to the last waypoint of the flight plan or
- ete to the direct to wp
TDSGTNXI_TotalETA
The total ATA variable shows the current Z time.
It should display the following:
- ATA at the last waypoint of the flight plan or
- ATA at the direct to wp.
Tested with 2 aircraft. MSFS 2024 Cessna 152 and Carenado F33A
Test software: Airmanager
The corresponding A variables from MSFS also do not receive valid values. However, the GTN 750 from PMS can do that.
Any idea why this could be. The integrated fuel computer of the TDS GTNXi displays usable values. We only noticed it because we use a Shadin fuel computer in one of our airmanager cockpit, which carries out the calculations based on the ETE. And the displayed ETEs and ATAs in the FP of the TDS GTNXi are also correct.

Hello,
Which version of the GTNXi PC Trainer are you running; this is displayed on startup?
