When I use the trainer it won’t gain altitude after activating a flight plan. I only have a speed adjustment to play with?

I’m sure I’m doing something wrong?

Thanks

look at the autopilot settings.

So I guess I can start in autopilot mode and then switch to follow flight plan mode. Seems like follow flight plan mode should let you pick a starting cruise altitude otherwise it skims the ground at random low altitudes.

To select altitudes in Follow Flight Plan mode, you must enter an altitude restraint on the active waypoint segment. This would be done from the FMS - FPL page and tab.
