I have just went in B737-800 to Palm Springs Int. The end was, maybe not embarrassing, but definitively not as smooth as I'd like. I was arriving to PSP on V137.

In my native language we have an idiom, literally "sth went down to the dogs", meaning that a quality of sth have rapidly dropped. Therefore I do hope that you have abandoned that program

BTW, cute dog

Thanks for a nice talk guys. There is some plague with this software, by the end of the flight my weather engine went nuts, giving me much worse weather that I heard from controller. I went to almost IMC on circle to land at KSEE, need to do my first PE diversion. It felt like I was missing at least...
