mizra108 Posted August 23, 2020 Report Posted August 23, 2020 Ive noticed that while flying and leveling off in a climb or descent, the airplane’s altitude alert never illuminates and or sounds even when requirements stated in the fcom are met.
Litjan Posted August 23, 2020 Report Posted August 23, 2020 Hi mizra, this may be a good thing to add to the FAQ, thanks for bringing it up! There are two different options for airlines to choose from. The one we portray does not sound the C-chord tone if you approach the altitude in a normal way. It will only sound if you approach it very rapidly (looking like you may not intend to level off). It will also sound (and flash) if you divert from the set altitude by more than 250! (not 300) feet. Cheers, Jan
Torbinator Posted September 2, 2020 Report Posted September 2, 2020 Would you consider portraying the version that does chime at 900 and 300 ft? Bells and whistles are fun!

Bells and whistles are fun! Perhaps at a later date, but for now we have much bigger fish to fry than re-coding the call-out system!

Yeah, I have a request for that flagged - as Cameron said, when the more important fixes are done, we will turn to these requests. Cheers, Jan
