I'm not a RL Pilot, but UK CAA CAP 413 May 2016 Page 9 seems to agree with badderjet:

Number                  Transmitted As                Pronounced As

FL100                    Flight Level 100              FLIGHT LEVEL WUN HUN DRED

 

Edit: But the same document then indicates in Appendix 1 that this is specific to the UK and the ICAO standard is Flight level one zero zero

It's because badderjet has it right. 😁 I have never heard a controller in Scandinavia refer it to FL 'one zero zero'. Granted I dont fly that high but I share the same freq as those who do. Sweden control will clear you to FL one hundred. 

It is odd seeing that stadium rendered in Pyongyang.  Asobo actually bothered to render that in an unpopular destination country with terrible sat imagery.  Gives me hope we will see a lot of hand crafted landmarks in this sim that were missing in all previous sims.

Disclaimer: I detest the negative comments people make, especially those comments that push some conspiracy theory about how ASOBO/Microsoft are nefarious. So allow me to do exactly what I hate other people doing, because I'm human and that's what we do. 🤣

Here's my ridiculously silly conspiracy theory: ASOBO modeled a stadium in an unpopular destination with terribad sat imagery, then posted a video of it, so that people would see it and think "Wow! If they took the effort to hand craft that place, then they must also have hand crafted all of my way more popular favorite places, too!"

Feel free to shoot down my conspiracy theory, I would. 😂

For me it makes more sense that the area was captured during an in-between phase of work. Why would they make that stadium at that detail level and leave the rest of the area with green roads? They probably have different teams work on different things, and the team that made the stadium completed it before the team that fine-tunes the landscape finished theirs.

I am talking about Europe and not once in a lifetime have I heard anyone in any airspace say „level one zero zero“.

 

Not to split hairs but your sentence can be interpreted that you were talking about Europe but the phrase "one zero zero" isn't used in ANY airspace...Europe or otherwise.

I have never been a pilot anywhere in Europe but I can testify that in the U.S. over 35+ years of almost always being in ATC contact whether IFR or VFR Flight Following, I have never heard the phrases you say are standard. 

Again, having never been a pilot or crew in Europe, I cannot and do not doubt what you say. But in the US, when on rare occasions I would hear some cowboy say "level at 10" or some other non-standard phrase, the controller if in a good mood would just say back..."level at FL one zero zero" or if he/she wasn't in a good mood, they would say..."Say again your altitude."

Another poster is correct that in standard ICAO documents, flight levels are expressed as...for example "FL210" which would be spoken as two, one, zero. 

I always thought that ICAO standards were required to be accepted by all nations but again, I have no direct experience outside the U.S.

Don’t read too much into it, of course you can hear all possible variations. For 210 as you say it’s way more clear and many would say „two-one-zero“, but I was talking about full hundreds, thousands and the like. But even for numbers like that you will regularly hear „turn left heading two-eighty“, „maintain speed three-hundred or more“, „reduce to one-seventy“ and so on and so forth. Used by controllers and pilots. Certainly, just as you mentioned there are pilots checking in with something like „Airline 123, climbing 5“ or so, but I can’t recall a controller to let them say again for that. Nevertheless it’s interesting to hear a comment from another part of the globe, so thanks for your insight. Listening to LiveATC though, don’t a lot of controllers say stuff like „expect level xxx ten after“ instead of „one-zero minutes after departure“? Believe I’ve heard that a lot.

There is tons of other examples that happen 24/7 that don’t adhere to any written standard. To my knowledge any takeoff and landing clearance should state the wind, then the runway, then the clearance. There is a reason behind that. Once certain controllers are in a hurry, they‘ll just start the transmission with „cleared for takeoff“, then probably the runway, and then the wind. Or whatever combination. It’s not as it should be, but it is what it is.

I wish you guys would stop going off topic so much. That is what made the mods close the other leak thread.

I like the autogen houses. Still looks a bit clean, but way more authentic than what we have.

a few more in absent of videos..

Still very interesting to see they still seem to have two versions of the HUD. Whereas I still find the round dial one much more suitable for the props as their VSI goes to +/-2000 fpm only. Plus the ASI color arcs seem to be adjustable. Nice. Hope this makes it into RTW/RTM.

Wow... Those waves at the Golden Gate bridge image... wonder what the wind was?
