[BUG LOGGED] Airport History not updating on world map

Voted… and I can confirm… same three airports on top after SU5 - seems to have frozen somehow. Lucky for me, my 2 favorites are still on top. Maybe they changed the way it is updated ? counting the most frequent instead of the last 2-3 airports ?

Nope one of my three is an obscure Brazilian airport I rarely go to.

I always have EGLL, EGKK and WSSS as history despite flying many more times from other airports such as VHHH and LXGB.

Are you using Developer Mode or made changes in it? No

Airport history is no longer working for me on the flight planning screen. Anyone else having this? It lost my previous airport visits, but I figured it just got erased during the update process. However, I flew to several airports after the update and it did not save them in history. I find it very helpful when doing cross country trips. The next day, or a few days later I do not always remember where I left off. Yeah, I could look at my log book page, but I would like the flight planning history to work again. Any ideas?

For me it remembers an airport I used a lot in my early days with the sim (talking nearly a year ago) but has no “memory” of recent airfields at all.

I believe a full flight with shutdown and the end screen is required for this to work

I can confirm that is not the case.

@MiddcoreGaming Which post are you confirming to?

It is not the case that shutting down and getting the logbook screen makes the airport appear in your history. I’ve done that today multiple times and none of the fields used appear in my recents.

I’m seeing the same thing.

I think flight history is stored on the cloud, and it is not persistent at the moment. It seems to be using an old snapshot.

Yeah the airports that it’s “stuck” on for me definitely make it seem like it’s using a “snapshot” from a few weeks/months ago.

I’m playing on Xbox. Last year I played a few sessions on PC. It seems the history of those sessions was stored and those airports appear in my history list. However, the airports I’ve flown since, on my Xbox, don’t get stored in the list. It’s still the same old airports that are in the history list.

Same issue here even for latest update 1.18.15.0.
It is just showing 3 entries from very very past and not updating history search entries at all.
