November 16, 20241 yr I noticed the Copilot is saying “Leveled at FLxx” when handed over to next ATC, it always says it even if I am descending.

November 17, 20241 yr Author The issue didn’t come up on my second flight! I think on the first flight I might had started descending when told to expect the STAR, before getting actual clearance to descend via the STAR.

November 17, 20241 yr Author I completed the third flight but I never got clearance to descend via the STAR, which might be the reason why I descended too early on the first flight. I only got the “Expect arrival xx” instruction. I think P2A is assigning the STAR too late, I was almost over its first waypoint. The flight was on the X-Craft E-190 from KSAN to KLAS, via the RNDRZ3 arrival and using the A320 profile.

November 18, 20241 yr Author I completed the 4th flight after updating to 0.0.27K, same route KSAN-KLAS with the RNDRZ3 MISEN arrival. This time P2A assigned the STAR around 15 miles from MISEN and instructed me to descend from FL330 to cross MISEN at FL240, that required a very steep descend. And that was it, I never heard from P2AT. I also noticed that in one of the handover the aircraft was adjusting from a very slight deviation from the FL330 cruise altitude, and Copilot reported “descending to FL330”. Maybe Copilot is too sensitive to altitude deviations during cruise.
