Ah could be, but DST is 1 hour and and sunset seemed to be off by about 1.5 hours. Also the time zone is completely incorrect, flying from one part of Tasmania to another and the time changes by 2 hours where in real life its all one time zone.
@Neo4316 It seems the game does have DST, at least for London the UTC and live time are the same. In summer it showed an hour difference between the two.
We just changed back to winter time (a week later as Ontario didnāt want to ever use winter time again, but NY and Quebec do. The stock market is more important than what the majority wants. Dark at 5pm now ugh) and the game has that right. If I change the date backwards, the time change shows between November 6 and 7.

So, I lived in South Korea. GMT+9.
Always I start flying From RKSS or RKSI. I Have GMT+8 time.
After Takeoff, Several Mile to East. TimeZone changed to GMT+9. Is correct time in my hometown.
How Asobo Set time zone? Any Plan to Fix tihis? Any 3rd Party addon to fix this?
Itās very old issue from former Flight Simulator.

Time zones in certain parts of the world are incorrect. My main example is on the island of Tasmania in Australia. All of Tasmania is UTC+10 IRL. In MSFS, the eastern part of the island is UTC+10, but the north and western parts are UTC+8.5, which is not right. There are other parts of Australia where time zones are incorrect as well. Notably North Queensland.

Brief description of the issue: Ever since 1.17.3.0 update the live time is inaccurate at and around the following airports such as TFFJ and TNCM. Everywhere else around the US and even Florida show the proper live time. Going south east from Florida the Live Time inaccuracy seems to start around MDPC Punta Cana Intl Airport. I have highlighted the area where live time is reporting US Central Time of which is also the local time of my PC. Flying in and out of this area often between Florida and St Maarten I never have noticed this issue until after the 1.17.3.0 update. Many other airports in and around this area are seemingly reporting inaccurate live time. Not sure what it may be reporting for people that are on a different time zone than I am.

I now have to report this error here, it was already found 2 times when writing a ticket no view and hope for many votes and people who see the same problem. The point is that the time zones in Greece need a complete overhaul. Greece is in summer time 3 hours + UTC no 2 as it is currently the case.
For this, the Hawaii Islands also need a time zone revision, normally Hawaii UTC would have to be - 10 and not -9.
The island of Madeira near the Canary Islands has also had the wrong time since it was published. The time zone is - 4 UTC normal would be +1 UTC
The Azores also need a revision of the time zones. At the moment we are here at - 2 UTC. Correct would be 0 UTC
If someone finds even more time zones, always get in with them.
I would like to fly real, so please make the time zones accurate. https://www.zeitzonen.de/ this page helps a lot.
Can confirm. I just did TAP 1863 flight from Lisbon to Ponta Delgada in the Azores using the new MK Studios scenery.
Flight departure was 1705 local.
Block time gate to gate was 2h24m
But the arrival time in Ponta Delgada shows 16:29. Should be 18:29 local.
Itās funny because I always thought UTC was purely based on longtitude in order to iron out problems associated with large countries and GMT anomolies ā¦ by this thread it would seem theyāve reinvented the square wheel.
Hi there,
I live in germany and now its 15:54 Uhr (3:54pm).
I try to fly with departure from Rhodos in Greece using ālive timeā. But simulator still shows 15:54.
Rhodos in Greese is one hour further, so it must be 16:54 (4:54pm).
Has anyone an idea?
Regards
I have reported this to Zendesk twice. I hope they fix it.

Completed. Same issue. (New MSFS install - removed through Steam, rebooted, reinstalled through Steam)
Are you using Developer Mode or made changes in it?
Yes. No changes made. I use it to occasionally display the FPS.
Brief description of the issue:
The time Iāve noticed in the Cessna C208 and in the menu screens is off by an hour. Hawaiāi does not observe Daylight Savings Time. (Itās an hour early.)
Detail steps to reproduce the issue encountered:
Havenāt checked it out in other A/C yet as I predominantly fly the C208. The āNAV chartā from the top menu shows the local time and UTC. UTC is correct, but Hawaii is not.

Hi Latka,
I submitted this specific issue for Hawaii 2-3 times to the Zendesk. The first time was way back last year shortly after MSFS was first released.
They seem to have higher priority issues they are working.
Frankly, Iād be willing to live forever with the Hawaii time being off by an hour, if theyād just release that instant replay feature for tower views soon!

I hear ya. Itās a minor gripe overall. Now if we could just get some love for the State of Hawaii, scenery-wise. I mean the default stuff isnāt an āF,ā but at best itās a C+.
Unfortunately, I have to agree with you, about the Hawaii scenery.
Itās much, much better than the default scenery in FSX, but IMO not really up to the quality of the add-ons that are available for FSX.
Iād like to say, though, that there are some really good, very reasonably priced Hawaii airport add-ons in the MSFS Marketplace, if youāre willing to split with some funds.
I have recently purchased 4 very nice Hawaiian airports from SouthOak company, recent newcomers to the scene, and Iām quite satisfied not only with the airports, but also with their treatment of the local areas surrounding the airports.
Might be worth a look-see, while waiting for someone to give the overall Hawaiian scene an upgradeā¦
Oh, Definitely. SouthOak is making some good airports! Iām pretty sure I have everything theyāve produced so far. I just need to set aside some time to install all my addons again.
Been experiencing a new CTD problem Iām trying to fix too. (Sigh)
I have found this is the same in Finland. When I load with LIVE time and weather, it is only set at +2 UTC. It is summer time there at the moment and should be +3 UTC. Does MSFS not deal with the daylight savings changes to different timezones?

I would think that it does. . . I guess it will be something to look at closer when time change rolls around. I can only suspect that time will change but the variance in accuracy will remain the same. We will see.
I have this same issue. The clock is correct when running x-plane but is and hour ahead in msfs 2020. Iām in Arizona and am using the West server so I donāt think that is an issue. Seems that MSFS is giving arizona a MDT instead of MST.
