Post subject:  Cruise altittude

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

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,

Post subject:  Re: Cruise altittude

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?

Post subject:  Re: Cruise altittude

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?

Post subject:  Re: Cruise altittude

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...
