Issue Priority	Medium
Security	Public
Area	ACARS
Issue Type	Bug
Target Version	0.0
Issue Description	Every so often in flight, also whenever I click start flight or reconnect ACARS, it scrolls thru a ton of "error 9" says a bunch of other stuff I cant see because It's scrolling too fast, and I see "disconnecting from FSUIPC" ... after a bunch of these, then it gives a bunch of these messages: [21:31:29] Restored FSUIPC Connection [21:31:29] Registered FSUIPC v5.152 detected [21:31:29] WideClient detected [21:31:29] Connected to Prepar3D/64 v4.5 I can't scroll up to see the full error because it's past the furthest point it will scroll up in the messages. I counted 27 of the above reconnection messages over a 16 second period. After it connects, it does fine for about another 20 minutes or so and then the sim will lag and show that it is not responding, ACARS will show all the red error 9 and FSUIPC errors again, then all the reconnects, and the sim will be responsive again. I have no issues with any other addons, and a flight without ACARS on has no lagging at all. managed to get a screenshot of ACARS when it had the errors - https://prnt.sc/p2xrfw ACARS version - 3.4 build 138 64 bit ... I found I can reproduce the problem by clicking the different tabs (chat, online, status). If I leave ACARS alone, it generally does ok for 20-30 minutes.

Luke Kolin (DVA043) 09/14/2019 09:30 ET	One other question - have you turned off automatic flight saving?
Luke Kolin (DVA043) 09/14/2019 09:40 ET	Please send the ACARS log from that flight. I wonder if the auto flight saving with PMDG is doing something.
Luke Kolin (DVA043) 09/15/2019 08:42 ET	This is PMDG flight saving. Exclude FSX/P3D from all P3D and My Documents/Prepar3D folders and you should be OK.
