andersenbali 1 Posted December 12, 2018 Share Posted December 12, 2018 When I plan a flight for the ie. 737-800 I noticed that the Climb and descent speed settings are 250/280/78 in PFPX. How do I change these? My climb setting in the AC is lower and therefore the time to reach way point never matches the OFP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phil747fan 52 Posted December 12, 2018 Share Posted December 12, 2018 which profile are you using? what setting are you using in your plane? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andersenbali 1 Posted December 12, 2018 Author Share Posted December 12, 2018 Im using the aircraft type Boeing 737-800 engines CFM56-7B26. Under Configuration I can´t change the climb and descent profile. It´s not to modify 250/280/.78 My plane is set to climb 250 below 10.000 or accordingly to restrictions. Then above 10.000 it´s 276/.74. Descent: 250 below 10,000 or accordingly to restrictions. Above 10.000 it´s .76/278. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phil747fan 52 Posted December 12, 2018 Share Posted December 12, 2018 where the profile come from? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phil747fan 52 Posted December 12, 2018 Share Posted December 12, 2018 i checked and boeing did not provide as a standard procedure that lower climb speed that you are using. so someone need to generate that specific climb profile for you with the proper tool. is it your real airline using it? as it seems a CL climb speed not a NG one.

andersenbali 1 Posted December 12, 2018 Author Share Posted December 12, 2018 The 250/380/.78 profile comes from PFPX default for the B738. The climb profile in my aircraft is default in the ZIBO mod and comes from a European low budget airline company. I guess climb and and descent profiles are company specific and would be great if it was possible to modify in the PFPX aircraft editor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can.. Just a matter of changing the data in the FMC. And you can easily be right about the -400. I haven't looked into that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phil747fan 52 Posted December 12, 2018 Share Posted December 12, 2018 the difference at the end should not be that much anyway a difference between 250 limited to 10000 and full 280 climb is only 25 kgs ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
srcooke 421 Posted December 12, 2018 Share Posted December 12, 2018 You could try the performance file from AirlinerPerformance.net and try the ECON climb option Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
