milibars vs inches

Featured Replies

I fly mostly in europe using PMDG JS41. My question is: since altimeter in ariplane doesn't show decimals on milibar scale how should I know when to stop turning the knob? I mean 29.92 in = 1013.2 mb but since thre's no decimal on the gauge it will Show 1013mb even when the in settings is 29.91 or 29.93 in inches. That caused my Flight keeper to penalize me for wrong altimeret setting.Last flight was (from FS Flight Keeper)pressure 1014.9 my altimeter 1015.2 but both are showing 1015 in the plane. In inches it's 29.97 and 29.98 so I could easily set that if controller told me altimeter in inches, but since I'm in europe he didn't. So what would be te solution for that?Greg

It is (or, as I thought, was) a long-standing bug in Flight Keeper which I thought was fixed, but as I haven't used it for a while I cannot swear to that. There's no other solution really.RegardsPete

Here's a link to the home page where a point upgrade is announced. There is also a forum link here.http://www.flightkeeper.net/
Sadly Ron that point fix doesn't address this issue which I raised with Thomas last October here. He did say it would be fixed in the next update but we're still waiting for it. I think he's due another reminder. :(

I've had a reply from Thomas regarding the 'bug' in FSFK. He's half-way through the list of fixes and hopes to release a fix towards the end of the summer.GFurm, I considered doing that but resisted.
