Altittude Problem

Featured Replies

hi pmdg team i had experienced an problem,in my flights. when the plane is cruizing on FL260,FL260 is cruize alttiude and then i get a windshear and the plane is on FL261,and holds FL261 and in the fmgc i enterred the cruize alt FL260 the plane dont descends to FL260(other planes do that)the plane does hold FL261.i dont think thats normalYunus Aktas

She should return to the cruise altitude set in the FMS and on the FCP ALT. A screen shot would help identify the problem.The most common reason for being at FL261 instead of FL260 is because when the FCP ALT is set if you overshoot to 26100 that value is put in the FMS. You have to verify that the cruise on INIT page is what you expect.

i entered in the fmc FL260 adn on the mcp altittude selector i selectet 26000

The FMC is changed to the maximum entered on the MCP selector if it is higher then the current FMC alt. So if you entered, 26000 in the FMC and then dial 26100 on the FCP, the FMC will be changed to 26100, even if you changed the MCP back to 26000.

but i lett al the time the MCP selector at FL260

I will try one more time, if when setting the FCP ALT to 26000 you accidently went to 26100 for a second or two, then changed it to 26000, then the FMS will be changed to FL261. That is one possiblity. The other possibilities probably need a screen shot to maybe spot the problem.Please sign your posts.

I recommend shortening it then? Google is your friend, it's seems like in other recent posts from you however you may be allergic to it?

If flying in the UK set your Altimeter to 1014mb or 29.92 above 6000ft that could be part of the problem.

doesnt helps :( :( :(the plane should descend to fl260 back and not stay at 26100feet

use the vertical speed wheel to descend to your cruise altitude
