In my last few flights, PF3 tells me I am 500 ft under the altitude displayed on my instruments.

I am over 1800 ft and my altimeter is set to 29.92, so I don't see what I am doing wrong?

I've attached the logs.

Regards

David

Are you sure you set you altimeter correctly. The log shows Baro=30.44491 CompensatedAlt=18470

The latest build is broke on my end as well. I too have the altitude problem. It seems like PF3 isn't recognizing STD 29.92. Also it seems that the SID/Star function is broken. On takeoff I'm getting runway heading and turn instruction. SID AND STAR are checked active. It was working fine before the last two updates.
Thank you

Hey Dave,

I too have been having altitude callout problems since the 3.15.1 update. However it has been inconsistent. On some flights I have had no problems. On some I've had to climb 500' on others I've had to descend 100' to get the nag to go away. All flights were above 18000 with 29.92 selected. My altitude deviation is set at 300' and I would still have ATC telling me to maintain the current FL. On the this past flight I was at FL250. When the nag occurred, I incrementally climbed 100' at a time to see if the nag would stop until I reached FL255. The nag continued at each 100'. I then descended incrementally. The nag continued until I reached FL249. I am running FSX and this was not occurring prior to the fix for MSFS 2020.

Hope the logs help.

Tony J
