That's good Marcel, yes - it appears that your pirep uploaded properly using SPAACARs.
<em><strong>All pilots</strong></em> need to be advised that recent changes in the latest version of SPAACARS (version 10.6) seems to cause false virus concerns. The only addition to this version over previous was the inclusion of a Microsoft standard "System.Globalization" library to handle how different language systems deal with decimal digits to ensure proper conversion of uploading to our database. For some reason this sets off various warnings for Windows Security and other anti-virus programs. If you see warnings related to installs or running of SPAACARs, please disregard them and tell your anti-virus programs to allow the program to run and not block it. Some anti-virus programs will flag any program as a PUP (Potentially Unwanted Program) that has routines that contact the internet (potentially without your knowledge). Of course, SPAACARs will contact the internet to upload your pirep and to update your position reports during a flight on the ACARS map linked to the main SPA webpage.
Sorry for this added inconvenience that this recent change might cause our pilots.
