Stopover and flight levels
« on: July 30, 2004, 11:46:54 pm »
Is there a way to add in a stopover to FS2002 so that you can fly it all on one flight plan? Also, can you change cruising altitude halfway through a flight (EX. When you fly from Seattle to Heathrow they climb after they rech the Atlantic)

Thanks a million,
Jonny

No I don't think so. But I'm not a 100% sure. Perhaps there are some way that I don't know about.

for stopovers i think the best plan would be just to make two seperate flight plans..
or do u mean add a stopover to euroharmony plans, by the way what is the policy on stopovers on eh flights?

and for the stepped climb, its possible using somthing like fsnav, or by controlling the autopilot manually. However im not sure about 2004 but in 2002 you couldnt change your cruising altitude.. maybe u can request a new one in 2004, i dont know..
if your on IVAO or VATSIM though, then you will be fine with changing cruising altitudes..

You can request changing cruising altitude in FS2004 as far as i know

For stopovers what we usually do is to do it in two flight plans and note that down in the comments when you submit the flight......no one seem to have discovered a way to add those stopovers just yet

you can change the cruise alt in FS2004. It's not possible to make a stopover in one flight plan in neither version of FS

That's the correct to do it according to our OPS manual.

Hmm what is that I hear, a pilot that doesn't know the ops manual by heart :$
(Perhaps we should have a writen test when pilots join, 15 questions from the manual.) :o
I only know it because it's part of my job in the management to know the rules, and act according when I check PIREP's
