Baron won't recognize nonstandard pressure

Featured Replies

This seems to be a bug with MSFS. The Beechcraft Baron won't recognize an altitude set if you are using anything other than a pressure altitude of 29.92.

This means that if you are using live weather, and the pressure is set to say, 30.21, the plane will level off above the altitude you set, and never reach it.

Conversely, the TBM has no issue with nonstandard pressure.

You are saying the autopilot is basing its altitude capture on pressure altitude vs indicated? Not that the G1000 doesn't allow you to set the correct altimeter setting, correct?

Yes this is what I see as well.

If you set proper altimeter, the plane will level off incorrectly.
