| Post subject: | PF2000 won't compile my flight plan |
| Hi all, Recently I just bought this PFE and PF2000. I generated a flight plan from KSHD to KROA and set everything appropriately. And the conversion to FS2000 format went well too. However when I opened FS2000 and loaded the converted flight plan, the "compile" button was always greyed out. I checked "use real weather" and set everything right. I have no clue what is with PF2000. Anybody can help me out? Thank you! |

| From our FAQ section:- A few things to check in ProFlight Settings... please ensure you have your Cruise Altitude set to at least the same altitude as that in your flight plan... also ensure the Center Altitude is not too low (you may need to experiment with this one but tests have shown it can be too low which can prevent PF compiling the flight plan.... the default is 14,500)... also make sure the Center altitude is lower than the cruise altitude... if your regional currency settings are set to a comma rather than a decimal character that can also prevent PF from compiling the ADV flight file. If all else fails please try setting your regional settings to English just to see if that cure the problem. |

| I just checked everything except the center altitude. Since I'm only flying VFR in a Cessna 172 at 6500ft, is that gonna be too low if I set the center altitude lower than that? Or is this Pro Flight Emulator only for Airline captains who want to fly big jets at FL 300? BTW I also tried to create a flight plan for a Boeing 747 at FL 220 but it still couldn't compile it. The flight plan is in FS2000 format and I used "real weather" and everything else was set right. It just won't compile anyways...probably easier to just go to the airport and fly the real airplane if my instructor wasn't booked during the weekends... |

| So why didn't you check the Centre altitude? Sent from my Dumbphone |

| actually I just set the center altitude from 1000 to 30000 and made sure it was always lower than the cruise altitude but it still didn't work. |
