SUMMARY
=======
In Flight Simulator 4.0, if the altimeter increases past 128,000 feet, it will
jump back to zero. This is a result of binary overflow in the display. When
descending back through 128,000 feet, the altimeter will again be accurate. The
aircraft performance is not affected.
MORE INFORMATION
================
This limitation does not occur in Flight Simulator 5.0.
