Brayton and Ian Just checked the settings in FSX and you're absolutely on the money. As soon as I changed to Hybrid or US ft and inches it came back to 'normal' supply across the board.Must admit I don't know how it came to be in metric but it sure as heck aint now. Many thanks to all contributors,and as my first time on ANY forum I am really impressed with the help offered. Pete

Dan and Flexman I've flown the tutorial and many more over the last decade, but I haven't come across this problem before. I can't fly according to minimum equipment but at least I can do everything else. I covered and uncovered pitots, but it didn't make any difference to the reading, no headwind maybe? I'm assumming it's a bug because I've checked for faults and carried out maintenance on the appropriate sections. I don't think they'll let me pull the fuses to check them. Many thanks anyway. Pete.

Dan and Martin I found the answer on the LH panel of the Overhead. The altitude reading came back to normal on Captains side if I changed control switch on DISPLAYS CONTROL PANEL to BOTH ON 2. I'd of thought it should be in normal. Anyway, at least I can fly normal again. Many Thanks for the responses, Pete.

Dan I set all instruments to EITHER 30.09 (green) OR STD (yellow). I set standard and adusted baro setting individually and in unison, but it made no difference to the readings. The readings set at 30.03 ( button B ) are now 100, 320 and 320 left to right. I think the problem is deeper than I thought, but I'm extremely grateful for the help you've given. I'm going to get some fuel for myself now, but again many thanks anyway. If you think of anything else while I'm gone I'd be all ears. Thanks, PeteMartinI haven't tried that, I'll give it a go and post the outcome. Thanks, Pete

Pitot covers are off. Power is coming from engines with all appropriate switches closed as far as I can tell. Barometric of 30.09 ( My mistake first time ) gives readings of 70, 230 and 230 for FO. If STD is selected, readings of 20,70 and 70 are given.. The 30.09 in green and STD in yellow. DC amps - 0DC volts - 28AC amps - 30AC volts - 115 at 400c/s The pressure is rising as I'm writing. It's gone from figures above at 30.09 to 80, 270 and 270. Pete

Dan.I meant that I set all parameters the same on the instruments. I have just pressed B and Capt. reads 80 and FO and Stby read 200 at 30.02 Sorry about pressing wrong button Pete

Dan. I meant that I set all parameters the same on the instruments. I have just pressed B and Capt. reads 80 and FO and Stby read 200 at 30.02 in.

Just about run out of paths to investigate. Starting from C & Dark, the Captains altimeter reads lower than FO and Standby. I have checked the options to adjust all together to 29.92 etc., but cannot bring Capt. up to norm on ANY 737NGX. If the baro or radio are set the same the Captns. is still low. I've read what I feel is relevant documentation but I'm stumped. Any pointers would be gratefully taken on board and stored. By the way, the problem increases in leaps and bounds the higher the altitude.
