This is the one based in Seattle when you have to make a missed approach
on
runway 34R. I make the missed approach at altitude 900 ft. But still I am
announced failed as a went 'below' the missed approach height of 840 ft.
Done it multiple times now. A little frustrating. Any ideas?



Fly somewhere else?

make sure your alt setting is correct.. press M and then B during flight..
one will fix the DG and the other will fix the alt -

then try it again and make sure you don't go below mins. you should be able
to do it - I think 1ft under and you busted.

good luck

Hi Matthew

I'm aware of the effects of pressing the key "B" but what does
pressing "M" achieve?

Cheers

M or B (I can't remember which) resets the heading indicator - sometimes
you have to set it every 15 min. because it replicates the pressision or
whatever you call it that the gyro.. depends on your realism setting but it
could mess up your IFR test if you're heading in the wrong direction, even
though you think you're lined up correctly. The other of course sets your
alitmeter to the correct setting for alt.

ok this isn't making sense but "m" resets the heading indicator to the true
heading (compass heading) so ususally I hit M, and B

hope that made sense,

I certainly did, I think. I've achieved the same by twiddling the knob
and wasn't aware of a keyboard shortcut.

glad to help wish I knew all the shortcuts.
