April 26, 20188 yr Can anybody tell me if there is a mod to change the altimeter to read hectopascals as apposed to inches of mercury. I find it bizarre that carenado have done this considering the quantities read in kilos!?!? Cheers Lonz
April 26, 20188 yr Perhaps it should be based on the world region from which you purchase an aircraft. Here in the USA inches of mercury is still the standard. And not just for aviation.

Tooltip shows millibars, gauge window shows inches. Nice touch.
