I have observed that some of the PIREPS are having positive Landing V/S.

Examples

Is this some kind of bug?

Hi Chris,
If you notice it only happens with the Majestic Dash8. I don't know why but it's something that happens with all the trackers used to track flights.

I have seen it. Strange think is that not always happening. Other landings with the same aircraft has normal negative values.

ACARS reads the value provided by FSUIPC. I'll have a look in their forum for a possible solution. When the Dash was initially released we had a ton of problems, as the simulation run outside FSX/P3D and almost nothing got reported inside the simulation; thus we could not read what was happening. On later releases they changed that but a few reporting problems still remain as it seems..
