Hello all!
So I had a question about the step sizes in the simbrief OFP. Sometimes, the step sizes will be straightforward (for instance, CRZ alt is 340, and you step to FL360 at some waypoint, which means in the PMDG 777, the step size would be 2000).
Other times, the step sizes won't be equal (for instance, CRZ alt is FL360. You step to FL370 at a waypoint, but then you step to FL390 at some other waypoint later on). The increment isn't equal, so what would the step size be? Do you calculate step sizes through these increments?
Two more questions. In the PMDG 777, does "step size" mean the increment for step sizes (like each step climb will be 2000 feet higher/lower) or does it reference the VSPEED (the angle of attack)? Last question, if you do have any step climbs, does it specifically state what the step size would be anywhere in the simbrief OFP?
Thank you.
