I'm having an issue with the Nevada map QFE settings given by the "ATC" being below what I can dial on the Altimeter.  It's generally something like "24.52".  I haven't changed anything in the mission editor.  Am I the only one?  Did a term search with non results.   Appreciate the help.

Usually, most of the operators nowadays do not use QFE anymore, but use QNH instead. QFE is mostly used by old aircraft and probably russian aircraft. 

So if you really want to use QFE, get an aircraft that is capable of using it (like for example AJS-37, Su-27 and co and maybe also Mirage F1). 

If you want to have it realistic, get the QNH from the briefing and use that one. 

The ATC giving you QFE is still a leftover from EDs ancient ATC system which was based on the soviet/russian system, which utilised QFE. Wait for ED to update the ATC for more realistic behaviours.
