July 19, 200322 yr Hi guys,If you're level at say 6,000 feet and there is a minor variation in altitude, suddenly the altitude display is at 5,900 feet. Of course, it's not that you suddenly lost 100 feet, it's just a matter of how the speed display works. However, I must say that I do find it confusing sometimes. I believe that in real life the 60 is connected to the 00 and the 59 to the 80, so that when you're at 5,990 feet the top part of the display shows 6,000 and the bottom part shows 5,980, to avoid any possible confusion.Leo BakkerPS. In case anyone drops into the forum and thinks I must be really unhappy with the sim because of all my posts, I just want to repeat my previous praise for this sim. Go ahead and buy it, it's well worth the money! It just inspires the test-pilot in me :-)
July 19, 200322 yr Yes, it would be nice if this could be fixed. It would seem the other digits should roll with the 80, because otherwise it gives you very misleading information. The same is true on the speed tape.Lee Hetherington (KBED)
