April 5, 201610 yr Hey guys trying to file a flight from cyvr to yssy Entering ETOPS and filling appropriate ETOPS route Entering 120 ,180,207 an 330 min. I get all engine decomp ETOPS errors ! Warnings Any advise is greatly appreciated Cheers Mike
April 5, 201610 yr Author Is it ok to release the flight? And just be aware/ ignore warnings?? Cheers Mike
April 5, 201610 yr ETOPS setup depends on the plane, and sometimes there are more restrictions than just how many minutes you need to be able to fly. However, there is an option to disable ETOPS for the current flight, then you can release the flight as usual. Peter
April 5, 201610 yr Author Thanks Peter I am using the pmdg 777 200 L/R Would like to use this option rather disabling it, for realism
April 5, 201610 yr The warnings are fine. I'm assuming you have a Hawaiian airport for an alternate? You're getting the warnings because there are MSA's above 10000' around those airports. Brian W KPAE

Air New Zealand has longer ETOPS to fly the pacific for example. Lots of info regarding this on the net and in the PFPX forum @ Aerosoft System: MSFS2024, ASUS Rog Stryx Z790-A, Intel i9-14900KF, Asus ROG Ryujin III 360 , Asus Hyperion Case,Rog Stryx 4090 OC, Samsung 970 EVO M.2 SSD, 1Tb Samsung 860 EVO SSD,64Gb G Skill Memory, Asus Aura 1200W Gold PSU,Win 11 ,LG C4 48" 4K OLED Screen., Airbus TCA Full Kit, Stream Deck XL.

April 5, 201610 yr Yes using PHNL There are two MORA grids close to PHNL you need to be aware of in case you need to descend due to a decompression. One over the island of Hawaii at 16,100', and one over Maui at 12,400'. The warning is just pointing out that you may be below some terrain in this area. To see MORA grids click the far right button in the PFPX map. Brian W KPAE
