Issue Description	Hi Everyone -- I'm sorry for my recent incompetence and bunch of questions here and at the water cooler.as I try to get everything up and running as a new member here. I've been trying to start a flight, and when I click on it, I keep getting "Cannot Start Flight" with the following message "Object Reference Not Set to an instance of an object" "at GVAgroup.ACARS.frmMain.StartFlight(Boolean bShowDialogs) in D:\ACARS3\DVA ACARS 2\forms\frmMain.cs:line 1411" And "at GVAgroup.ACARS.frmMain.cmdStartStopFlight_Click(Object Sender, EventArgs e) in D:\ACARS3\DVA ACARS 2\forms\frmMain.cs:line 4238" I'm hoping that this can be troubleshot, and I can fix it somehow. I've already uninstalled and reinstalled ACARS multiple times; I've allowed it through my firewall. I've run everything as an administrator, and I've updated everything that I think there is to update. I appreciate your time, Dan

Luke Kolin (DVA043) 01/15/2020 21:07 ET	This is caused by an ACARS bug for pilots without a pilot ID. The latest beta should resolve it - if you want to switch to the beta channel, go to the Help About screen and switch your release channel, then restart ACARS.
