Nope, not for me anyway,.

Me neither

There's way too much hair-trigger "read the manual" stuff around here at the moment. Tedious.

I'm a R/W pilot and I've never seen it like that, it's ridiculus, and the R/A isn't set to 200' before takeoff, it should be set to 200' by default and returned to that value if a different one was used for the approach procedure. There is nothing in the FCOM about setting it before takeoff. There is far too much trigger fingering to leap at the manuals. Do you propose we sit at the holding point turning and burning for 1hr trying to get the R/A set down 200'?!?!?! In fact, you don't even have to return it to 200', I just checked the FCOM, you only do it out of courtesy for the following pilot.

Did you try hitting the reset button before adjusting your minimums. I hit reset then adjust and it always starts at 200.

I think the "reset" was the shifting of the mode to Baro Mins. That gave me a reading of 200. I'm simply flying verbatim as I can from Tutorial #1, and yes I have read the introduction in full. However, it's ridiculous to think someone is going to read 3400 pages of blah, blah, blah before they fly this incredible simulation. Dennis Trawick

Guys,We're having trouble reproducing this here. No "clown" decided to set it to 9000 feet - there's some kind of issue going on here. Standby...

"Clown" was meant to be a term of endearment : } I thought it might have been one of R's "surprises". Not a big deal, but something that may be looked at later, like tomorrow ::)) BTW, I really thought the landing sequence on Facebook was very creative. Oh ... what are the defaults on the Radio Mins supposed to be?

No, reset does not go from Baro to Radio you must manually turn the outer knob to do that. I've just always been in the habit of doing that since flying the IFLY. Sean

Had the same problem in the tutorial flight. Just tried my own flight, and tried to set the radio alt as I ascended - no problem, it defaulted to 100. Wonder if it varies depending on the stage you are at. I seem to think I was descending at about 8000 when I clicked on the RA, and got 8000 (and a week's worth of wheel-turning to get it to 100) - maybe there is a link here?

i see this also

Thanks. Strange problem, indeed. I think they are working on it. Can you imagine the kind of day(s) PMDG is(are) having? Dennis Trawick

I have only seen this when loading a panel state. I had hoped to leave the airplane, save the panel state, so when I return to it, it is exactly as I left it, not always the same cold and dark. This would be the radios, the altimeters, the course, all that stuff. It is when I load that state, or loaded a flight in mid flight (after a CTD, utilizing an autosave created by FSUIPC) did I see the 9000+ minimums. Load the cold and dark state, and everything is as it should

Easy for you to say, I can't even start the engines without a tutorial. That will probably give the troubleshooters a good place to look. Dennis Trawick

Experiencing this as well - glad I'm not the only one!

MIne defaults to 9,000 after the sim starts and while at the gate when setting up the aircraft. I always set the baro and radio altimeert to 200' before departing but after setting the radio altimeter down once I just forget about it now...waaaay too much hassle. I have setup the panel state to use the PMDG "long turn state" every time. Haven't tried any others yet.

Does the HOTFIX resolve this issue - anyone? Mas

It did for me, or at least I dont get the issue anymore.

Think about it - most certainly not. They're really concerned about getting the nasty freezes covered before they get to the minor issues (of which there are a number, no question). But they really shall get everyone up in the air without freezing first.
