Pressurization issue can't pressurize aircraft past 3000FT

Featured Replies

Ran into a bit of an issue with the Lear. I have the cabin air on but I cannot pressurize the aircraft to above 3000ft, the dial wont rotate any further. I also received a cabin alt warning passing through 24000ft as you can see by the picture. I just downloaded the aircraft for a p3dv5 install tonight so this should be the most recent version, correct? I saw in the changelog that there was a bug with the pressurization dial so I am hoping that issue hasn't returned. I have version 4.3c installed.

I don't see the picture you refer to, but regardless I can't seem to duplicate your problem -- the pressurization dial rotates to about 11000ft for me in P3Dv5 with Lear35A ver 4.3c, and I was able to pressurize the cabin to different altitudes, e.g., 8000ft while the a/c was at around 32,000ft.

The pressure will not show higher than your current altitude when you adjust the cabin controller from the ground. Then once you start to climb the cabin altitude pressure will raise. The reason you got a warning is because your cabin altitude pressure went above 10,500 which is the max allowed. This is because you had the cabin controller maxed as you stated. 

Here is what you do. if you plan to fly FL350 or 35,000 feet. Adjust the cabin controller altitude between 4 and 5 for cabin altitude and 35 for ACFT (Aircraft Altitude).

That's it everything is now automatic as we have the Auto stuck on. We do not simulate manual.

Okay I think I got it figured out now. Thank you.
