Time zones are incorrect. i.e. flight from Montreal to Paris. Local Montreal time shows 08.00pm local Paris time 00.00am (should be 6 hours not 4) i.e. 02.00am - Anything to correct this?

I think the way it works is to make sure FSUIPC is not keeping FS time synched to real time, and be sure when you start your flight that FS time is correct to local time. You do that manually. Then it seems FS keeps track of the time zones so if you set FS time to your departure time from Montreal, FS will have the correct local time when you arrive in Paris.

There are some BGLs to correct this. Look for "timezone" here in Flightsim.com. I´ve downloaded tz30.zip, there are many BGLs there, place them to addon scenery folder. I haven´t tested from N.America to Europe yet, but flying across time zones in South america is now perfect. Before this, SOmetimes I was flying at 6 something PM (already night) and suddenly it turned day again showing 5 something PM. Very annoying.

Also no need to type in all CAPS. It is known as shouting!
