Anybody know how this is to be set correctly?
It only moves in increments of 100, so if I have a landing elevation of 150ft do I round this up or down top the nearest?
I did want to check the manual but I cannot find the install location (Purchased in game).
Many thanks
If you are talking about Landing Elevation used by pressurisation system then for ATR I keep it in auto mode (I guess it reads the elevation data from the FMS), for other planes that require to have it entered manually (737, A310, BAE146) I round it up… anyway 1-99ft difference makes no big deal if it comes to the air pressure.
I was curious about this so I searched Bing:
Round down for cabin pressurisation
it’s best if the cabin is always at a positive differential pressure. Negative differential creates a compression force and is less structurally stable. The cabin is pressurised slightly when the throttles are opened for takeoff, and before landing pressurised to below field elevation until after touchdown…This way the cabin altitude is always below the aircraft altitude.
Rounding down makes sense when you think about it, because pressurised aircraft are designed to… well… be pressurised lol
