That makes more sense (approx 1000ft), I guess the ATC calls were taken from Black Shark where altitudes were done in meters. Thanks Alpha

Ah Ferris... its been a long time since I heard that quote. On the UFC you can hit the PG/DATA rocker switch. The altitude will appear and it will start flashing, you can adjust the altitude by hitting the PG/DATA switch some more or just hit ENT to stop the flashing. To change back to DTS hit the PG/DATA switch to start it flashing then the SEL rocker switch to change it to DTS then hit ENT to stop the flashing. I'm pretty sure in both cases it will stop flashing by itself if you leave it for a few seconds.

Thanks for the answers guys... I am familiar with QFE and QNH but the climb 300 doesn't really make much sense. Assuming it means to climb to 30000ft, that seems like a looooonnng time to maintain runway heading, especially as most missions occur at or around 10000ft. If it means 300ft then perhaps we can assume we are allowed to deviate off runway heading at 300ft. Which seems more plausible, but still seems fairly low... correct me if I am wrong but in actual airports they usually make you climb to pattern altitude before departing VFR. Perhaps it is an indication of minimum safe altitude around the airport.

When I get takeoff clearance from ATC he ends the call with climb 300 at QFE 29. What does climb 300 mean?

I can confirm that the this is the cause of the crash in 4-2-0 as well, to fix it: - Load the mission in the editor. - Open the All Units list and select the USA AWACS - Change the call sign to something else (I used Overlord) - Save and you are good to go.

I get the same error dialog as soon as I un-pause at the start of Georgian Hammer 4-2-0 and 4-3-0 as well.
