Descent speed penalties question

(1/3) > >>

EHM-1838 Andrew:
Hello again
For my last three propilot flights i am receiving the same penalty 240 and that is for exceeding the maximum descent rate of 4500 fpm,but being aware of this i tried different descent speeds including Werner schotts for the BAE 146 and i am still getting the penalty.Any idea what sort of descent speeds i should try.I know that this can depend on all sorts of variables,but if you can give me an approx idea i would appreciate it.If it wasn't for this slip up i would have had no errors for my last three flights.
cheers Andy

Are you using autopilot VS mode? If so just set it to around 1500-2500 FPM and you should be alright.

EHM-1651 Christian:
Are you using the default panel or the one supplied for the BAe 146 in the fleet page??
If you are using the a default FS panel this can be the cause of the problem. I have encountred this myself with the A310.

EHM-1838 Andrew:
Hello Guys
My panel is the one by Targan UNUTMAZ a nice panel not as complex as that very complex one(you know the one)i mean;D
This is desent problem a bit worrying,just as i was beginning to enjoy useing PP we get this error.
