Flightplan Altitude Format x.x


Recommended Posts

Hi all,

 

I'm trying to replicate the BA Cirrus flightplan format and am struggling with displaying the MSA.

 

I've read what I think is the latest Flightplan Template Guide but am still having trouble.

 

For each waypoint there's a MSA figure under it and it's in the format x.x (eg 3.2 or 12.8 for 3200ft and 12800ft respectively).

Is there a altitude formatting parameter for that? If not, could one be added?

 

What have I missed?

 

Many thanks,

Ian

Ian:

I think the MSA field you are talking about is the GridMORA ?

If so, like all 'altitude' type fields:

The formatting is:

 

[0]    FL352 or FL112M

[1]    35300  or 11700

[2]    350 or 117 ( rounded to nearest 100 ft)

 

so, as an example from my SWA template:

<&GridMORA[2]:3/R>

 

Says( for an altitude of 33000  )  display this as    330 ( rounded)  make it  3 characters in length and align it right justified

Hi Bruce,

 

That's right, GridMORA but I'm trying to get it in the format x.x (i.e. 2.3 for 2300 and 11.6 for 11600). I could only find the 3 options you highlighted and am currently using the one you chose but none of which have the decimal in.

 

Do you know a way I could put one in?

 

Many thanks,

 

Ian
