December 6, 20187 yr On the PERF INIT page?? format is FL350 or 35000. this should always work regardless of the flight mode. ,

Trying to fill them out with the new FL it returns a message "INVALID ENTRY or VALUE". Using an imported route file? 32 minutes ago, Ephedrin said: On the PERF INIT page?? Correct.

Sure.. it‘s been several months since I‘ve flown the 737 the last time but as far as I remember I‘ve always done it there as the CRZ page is deleted as soon as you started a decent.. of course it‘s possible that I mix it up with something else... I’ve flown the Jumbo and A2A almost exclusively for 2 or 3 months... ,

It does remove the info, but there's a reason the page is still accessible, and has the open boxes for altitude entry. 10 minutes ago, sotiris said: No, I create it myself with Jepp charts.

December 6, 20187 yr Author I did one more test flight and this time it worked going to five box CRZ page. It accepted the new lower FL as MOD CRZ. I have no idea what went wrong at that flight. Thanks for your time. Sotiris Stavrakis

December 7, 20187 yr Generally, for changes of less than 1000’, use V/S or VNAV. LVL CHG takes a bit to get pitched over and is a bit abrupt in a short altitude change. Matt Cee
