Great. Thank you. Maybe it's time for an update to the message in the Operations Center dialog: Mostly because it didn't seem to be fully supported by PMDG

I purchased what I believe is a legitimate copy of the 777 from Aerosoft. I see an update is available at precisionmanuals.com through the Operations Center program. Apparently, I'm not eligible to download it because I didn't make my purchase from the PMDG website. Is there a way to associate my license with my account enabling me to download the update? Thanks, Jim Shoberg

I really don't know what the cause was originally. It hasn't happened again since I posted. I appreciate your time on this and apologize for wasting it. I have much bigger problems today...I installed PMDG 777-200. ETA: this is the original flight plan generated by SimBrief.com HUSSH2 GRTFL MACHU TMBRS2

The altitude on the AFDS panel is set at 36000. So the plane won't ascend further although it wants to.

The PROG page will show the next, and subsequent, waypoints as changed to FL375. The F-PLAN page still shows FL360. The airliner then pushes the new FL ball for the rest of the flight.. I'm not in front of it right now but I believe this is correct

I know I'm four years late but this is exactly the problem I'm having with one particular short flight...KOAK to KPDX on the MD-11. I don't seem to have this issue with other (longer) flights. I've tried numerous times to keep the the VNAV from wanting to increase the CRZ during the flight including wiping it out and re-entering it. It will start with everything correct in the F-PLAN, i.e., FL360 with no step climbs. Somewhere during the flight it will change to some unusual level, usu. FL375! And then the decent problems follow. I thought it was this flight in particular because it was SID to STAR with nothing in between. I added a waypoint in between but it didn't help. Oh well, must just be a fluke. Chirag, you aren't the only one. Jim Shoberg
