Out of oxygen and false emergency

[Donatelo]

Hello.

I flew the boeing 757 of project opensky with Lonnie's panel.


When I've reached an altitude of 15,000 the CABIN ALT WARNING has been turned on, and of course I had to use the oxygen mask in
the plane.

As needed, I immediatly declared and emergency, made a rapid descent and landed in the closest airport.


I received in the Flight Report "The captain decaled what seems to be a false emergency".


Why is that?

Thanks
Ran

That cabin alt warning, is it maybe an emergency modelled by the plane or panel? FsP doesn't recognize 'external' emrgencies. In the report was also
no mentioning of any pressure warning i guess?\

time for the mighty FAQ

"When to declare an emergency, avoid false emergencies?"

Hi
Thanks for the response.

But, I didn't set any failure in the FAILURE PANEL comes with the plane.
So, unless I have forgotten something on the aircondition system (which I think i don't I can't found the problem).

Of course I cannot continue the flight like that....

I suggest to add an option to disable the "FALSE EMERGENCY PENALTY".

Thanks
Ran

That would be harder than you'd think. FsP wouldn't be able to detect how severe an external failure would be and thus, even w/o giving a penalty,
couldn't award (or deduct) proper points for landing.

[Donatelo]

well the problem is that I haven't selected a failure so I can't understand why it happens

of course I couldn't continue all the flight with oxygen masks....

only failures that FsP make are mentioned by the co-pilot - thou there are 2 others, (fuel tank leak and oil temp rise) any other failure you
have will be either down to FS9 or the plane you are using.

FsP can not identify these failures, so calling an emergency will produce a false emergancy

It would be cool if Dan could contact PMDG and possibly Microsoft to see if it would be possible to integrate their failure systems. Probably not
Microsoft, however.
