Gingerjordan 0 Posted December 8, 2018 Share Posted December 8, 2018 Since updating to v2 the flight levels that are given in the ofp are way to low. Tried all methods of finding a route, (min time,min fuel, upper airways) but the Flight level never goes about FL300. Aircraft max alt is FL410 tried on many different routes but the flight levels are still not going high enough Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They did indeed help to build a more logic route. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You´re right. Previous version of PFPX didn´t take altitude limits on certain airways into account on the OFP from which I believe my confusion has arise.

srcooke 421 Posted December 9, 2018 Share Posted December 9, 2018 The vertical profiling has been totally overhauled and also taking into account the EuroControl level capping. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
