I can't find where the start height is specified. Help ... ?


Ted,

Go to the Task, then Tools and Options. You can put in the max start height under "Start Alt." and select the "Start out of the top" checkbox. I tested in Condor and it will still give you the option of starting out the side if you run out the side of the cylinder after flying out the top.


Tuno, on the same OPTIONS page you can additionally specify "Before Start: "Below alt" and "Below time"; works nice for our "2 minutes below start altitude" rule when we are hanging around above start altitude waiting for the gate to open - it gives you a loud warning when you have met the 2 minute time.

Hope to see you at Sampley's in a couple of weeks!
