That's the trick!
I was taking a flight, yesterday, and ATC told me I was 300 feet below my
assigned altitude. So, if you tell Michelle to turn on the autoaltimeter
setting, she'll do it, and it should straighten out. It solved my problem with
ATC and altitude.
I hope this helps.
Best regards,
Adam

Hmmmm. If that is the case Michelle is not setting it then when I tell her
to. Going to have to try using the B key and see what happens. Will post
about it tomorrow.

hmm, you might want to check your altimitter (q&h)
are they set correctly?
this is one of the things that causes the autopilot to not maintain a
altitude: wrong altimitter settings.
also are you doing all the checklists?
have you tryed it on diffrent airports?
try pressing the z key to activate/deactivate the auto pilot.
let us know~
however i'm verry susbicious that your q&h is not set correctly.
you have this mail from hadi

I did a complete removal and reinstal of IYP to see if I could get IYP VA
working again, but now I have a new problem. Now On the two aircraft in the
subject line, they will not climb or they will keep climbing and pass the
altitude set in the autopilot. The autopilot is turned on, and Robert, you may
want to look into this or try to give me an idea of what to do on what I am
about to write. Michelle says that I am level say at 7,000 feet when I have
just taken off and have just engaged or she has just engaged the autopilot at
1000 feet or so. Any ideas would be appreciated. Oh, by the way if it can be
done would it be possible to get Michelle to tell you what your nearest
airports are?
Thanks,
Jordan
