Sorry to trouble you with this but I've forgotten where I can access my flight details as I need to report a problem I had with my flight today.

I will be grateful if someone could give me the path to the folder please.

Many thanks.

John

From your Folder called "Flight"...the "FPP" folder needs to be zipped and attached to your post, also along with "Logs"
Hope this helps.

The folders are located in your main PF3 folder. The folders must be zipped to be attached to your post. Be sure to include the Logs folder as well.

Logs.zip
(998.37 KiB) Downloaded 125 times
OK - took a bit of time to remember how but I think I've got it now.

Three quarters through the IFR flight the controller said something I didn't catch and my co-pilot replied so I assumed everything was fine. However, not once after did I get any instructions except to maintain 10,000'.

Can one of you clever fellers tell me what went wrong please.

Stuff attached...I hope!

Just had a quick look at your logs,your flightplan cruise altitude was set to FL100 so you won't get any more clearance to an higher altitude unless you asked for one.
You also asked ATC to open your flightplan..why?

That's not what I'm complaining about Dave.

When getting close, I didn't get any instructions to reduce attitude or guidance as to directions etc. I was flying IFR so was expecting the controller to guide me down to the runway and hand me over to ground as usual. But I got nothing!

John, PF3 is Task/Event driven. i.e. It sets a task and waits for you to complete it before moving on to the next one. You failed to maintain your cleared altitude of 10K, hence the gentle reminder from ATC to 'Maintain 10,000'. Had you done so the rest of the flight would have continued as expected. .. trust me, I'm a doctor. ;)

:lol: How did I somehow know it would turn out to be my fault Dave?!!!

Thanks for the explanation though.

All the best.
