Sometimes I have seen the ETA at destination showing the wrong AM/PM tag. So far it has always been a PM showing as AM. This is intermittent. A check of settings shows correct local time offset. It has occured in same time zone as aircraft is presently located, and also occurred across time zones. It has happened 3 or 4 times, but nowhere near every time. Times that I've seen it have been when ETA is late evening/night. Never seen a PM/AM swap, ie., PM showing for an AM arrival, nor have I seen it when ETA is prior to 6 PM.

Anybody else see this?

Will this show in the flight log? just thought of that, so I'll download them and check.

This is a known bug, and I believe it is fixed in 10.2.

It happens when your arrival time occurs in the next Zulu day. (After midnight in Greenwich.)
