James Brickell (DVA953) 07/03/2005 12:26 ET	Luke, Let me look through this code and attempt to work on it.
Luke Kolin (DVA043) 07/03/2005 12:34 ET	Sure thing. View the page, and look at the Java stack dump you get. From there, you should get an idea as to what is causing the problem. My guess is that the problem is data related.
James Brickell (DVA953) 07/06/2005 00:36 ET	The bad data in MySQL is coming from some apparently bogus data we're getting from ACARS, negative landing N1 values in particular. Luke is investigating.
Luke Kolin (DVA043) 07/06/2005 22:04 ET	Fascinating - it looks like all of the bad data values are coming from the EMB-120. It may be that turboprops report some interesting data - especially since the ATR-72 values are pretty strange too.
Luke Kolin (DVA043) 07/06/2005 22:29 ET	I've cleaned out the funky data in ACARS_PIREPS and the page works. This will deal with the problem for now, but down the road we will probably have to open up another issue when ACARS refuses to post PIREPs from turoboprops. Since it's unlikely I can tweak the ACARS client in time, I might ask Peter Downson what funky values FSUIPC returns for N1 on turboprops.
