Small Transition Problem

[gbalean 0]

Hi Everyone!No this is not about Transition alt and level :)I have noticed on several occasions that when you first conduct a flight and enter the transition altitude (10,000) everything works fine during the flight. However after you conduct another flight without reloading the aircraft ie. have a turnaround, although the transition altitude is set at 10,000ft it desires local qnh to be set at 18000 during descent. Also, is it normal for it to show the qnh/altimiter setting below the text 'STD' when pushing 'b' higher than 18,000 but not between 10,000 and 18,000?Good luck with your next flights ;) I had to to a go around when flying online yesturday, or rather the PMDG 73 did it automatically. Just as I had disengaged autothrottles a little late (also before this it was on autoland) and it went to/ga. Before I realised what was happening, I was very fast and went around. Probably not the products fault however..Geoffrey BaleanCanberra, AU (YSCB)http://www.hifisim.com/images/as2004proudsupporter.jpg http://www.precisionmanuals.com/images/forum/800driver.jpg"Today is the tomorrow you worried about yesterday.

Hi,as Geoffrey stated above I have noticed the same behaviour with the trans. altitude. I set it normally to 5000 ft. The 1st flight is o.k. the second flight without reloading the aircraft gives me the STD qnh at 18.000 ft again even if in FMC I left it at 5000ft.ThanksConstantin

Just a late edit: The qnh / altimiter setting is shown below STD when pressing the b button below 18,000, not above 18,000 like stated above.EG. Descending through 18,000ft, just below that you push 'b' to set QNH (not really needed though, because above transition alt 10,000) but the qnh is shown below the text 'STD'. This doesn't occur when above fl180, which isn't my selected transition altitude.I am glad (wrong word perhaps :)) someone else has noticed the first bit of this problem too. Would it be possible that if a beta tester or developer sees this thread they could reply just so I know PMDG has heard ;)Regards,Geoffrey BaleanCanberra, AU (YSCB)http://www.hifisim.com/images/as2004proudsupporter.jpg http://www.precisionmanuals.com/images/forum/800driver.jpg"Today is the tomorrow you worried about yesterday.
