Hi, My 1st post on this new board So hello to everyone who as moved over!

I have a slight problem nothing major, I just cant seem to get right, so here goes  :-\

On the locations manager I have  them set to the heights at that location, being Home 500 and EGGC at 257, So when planes are landing at EGCC they go down to -425ft before they hit the runway, so I adjusted them to 925 & 602, restarted and they still go to -425!!!

I have the radar altitude set to -500 otherwise they dissapear about a mile from touchdown.

Now I know it will be some thing simple and Im quite sure Mike will have the answer, but I think Im just having a Doh Moment!

Any help is appreciated

Thanks Russ  :)

Hi Russ, welcome.

The altitude in Locations Manager has absolutely no effect on any Basestation functionality.

An option to set the local QFE and apply it has been on the Basestation Wish List for 3 or 4 years.
Here to Help.

Cheers Mike, I will just leave it on the -500 setting then at least they go all the way down then instead of re-apearing half way down the runway!!! lol  :)
