pecheur5500 8 Posted December 23, 2012 Share Posted December 23, 2012 Hi! during the descent checklist, it asks to check landing altitude! But the landing elev panel doesn't work... I must to active co-pilote just for that because i can't find what i must to do! An idea? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Edspace 1 Posted December 23, 2012 Share Posted December 23, 2012 Same here, during the descent asked to enter the landing elevation but how to find it (without refering to external charts or maps) and where to put it. Have to turn on co-pilot to get past this point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But you will always have to know the landing elevation before you land, if the MCDU does not have that information a lot of the calculation simply cannot be done.

Edspace 1 Posted December 24, 2012 Share Posted December 24, 2012 Isn't that information stored in the navpro database? If not and I have to enter it manually, where does it go? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Expedite 5 Posted December 24, 2012 Share Posted December 24, 2012 The landing elevation is stored in the database. It Should also bee shown on the ECAM. Unfortunatley in the Aerosoft Airbus the elevation shows permanent 100ft and does not change. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes I have the landing elevation! But when the checklist asks to enter this altitude, what must we do!!! ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
medwyn 1 Posted December 24, 2012 Share Posted December 24, 2012 Well, when the copilot asks for landing elevation, I usually punch in QNH value at the landing airport. The right place to enter it is in the PERF->Approach MCDU page. You can listen to ATIS to get the right values, which is sometimes impossible when too high and far from the airport (in the FSX world, anyway). So what I do is that i punch in some random value and check ATIS later, or get an approximate value from "status panel" (can be turned on by cycling through Shift+Z). Have fun!
