Hey guys sorry for my english first.
I set cruise altitude to 37000 ft and click compile and everything is succesfull. But my plan looks like this:

Cruise Speed - 39256 Knots IAS
Cruise Altitude - 9000 Feet

Altitude is 9000 feet instead 37000 and speed 39000 :shock:
How can i resolve problem with altitude ? Thanks for help

I have latest version of PFE

I opened FP converter pick heathrow - ataturk flight plane and click "convert FS FP to PF 2000". Then i start PF 2K icon, "select FLT" and pick heathrow-ataturk.PLN
Under "pilots name" i entered my name, selected US pilot accent and voice, "callsign is 2686 and "cruise altitude 37000 ft". Type of flight plan is IFR
I made some screenshots

l see you have your flight level set to 37000.... Try setting it to 6000 for European flights or 18000 for US flights.

Just checked your images and i see you have installed PFE into the default location,i hate to say this but you will need to uninstall PFE and re-install to say C drive or whatever you prefer,

I change flight level to 6000 and also installed on c:\ drive but still change altitutde to 9000. Maybe doesn't work with win7 64bit or maybe i need to write altitudes manualy by myself?

Works fine with windows 7-64 as i use it.

No need to manually write anything...

Have you checked out the tutorials for installing and setup of PFE,may help you as to where you may have gone wrong?

I think i know what could be a problem. When i click on "Select spec" Cruise speed is 74 and not .74. But when i enter .74 i get this error http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/151/74945287.jpg/
Even if i type 74 this message showed up.. i think this messed up cruise speed and alttitude

If i change to "indicated" works fine

Cruise Speed - 350 Knots IAS
Cruise Altitude - 37000 Feet

You don't need to touch anything else on the Proflight2000 screen apart from selecting plan and entering an altitude,leave everything as it is...
