From a beta tester than ran and become crasy on this problem:

"Well, a fresh reinstall of ActiveSky4.5(updated version) and a clearing and reset of the FSUIPC settings has now corrected the problem (
knock on wood). Flew Last night and it was rock solid. "

hope it help ?

In ActiveSky have you imported your route. Also have you enabled wind smoothing in FSUIPC? If you don't do either of these you WILL still
have the problem. After I bought ASV that problem seems to have cured itself as that seems so much better at smoothing it out. You still
get shifts but I can't remember the last time I got overspeed because of it.

Anyway, since ASV is not owned by all users, IMHO the introduction of a grace period or a tolerance limit would be a nice feature for a
future update...

Sorry I had *hot* discussion about that with some beta tester already...
I simply can't and will not do that...

I doesn't have any weather program and it work find for me with the default weather,
I personnaly never exceed VNE (and I love flying in bad weather)


VNE is speed NEVER exceed, not sometime.. FsP simply can't let people
hear the click clik of speed excess and have a good report....
If you run past VNE at each flight it's an extremely bad fault...

If you know that this happen to you even if it's due to a bug in the
weather system and you still continue to fly at the limit it's because
you don't care about your environnement enough, it's perhaps unfair but
in real life winshear are also unfair as lightning and storm...
pilot must take in account their environment .. Yours it that you have
big windshear so as a responsible pilot you must reduce speed
so to never exceed speed.

Also this bug of weather CAN be cleared but as it doesn't come from FsP
It's not the FsP job to take in account this things... If I do that peoples will
simply be allowed to exceed the NEVER exceed speed without penalty.

At last if you really don't care about your environnment because you think
"it's unfair" and find acceptable to have the click click of VNE at each flight
you just need to disable this penalty in the "more_option.cfg"

my two cents on this.
