QNH PROBLEM

Featured Replies

I think Radar Contact V3 is an excellent program, but I have a problem which I seem to be stuck with. If I decide to load weather conditions which includes anything other than the standard QNH of 1013, either by FS2002 weather planner or FS Meteo, I get the ATIS message with my correct QNH value okay, but when I reach cruise altitude I am given warning by ATC about busting my altitude which continues until I receive the usual reprimand etc. On requesting an altimeter check I still get confirmation of my original QNH setting (as given by FS Meteo etc) and as per the original ATIS message.Any suggestions where the problem lies??Thanks.Supashades.:-newbie

whenever you climb through the transition level (by default 18000 for the usa, variable in other countries), you must set your altimeter to 29.92when you descend through the transition level, you must reset the altimeter to the local pressure (pressing "B")

JDThank you for your prompt reply. Sorry I was unaware that the problem was so simple. Thanks again.Supashades.
