* '''QNH reported in''' ''(possible values: hPa, inHg, hPa and inHg)'' - Sets the unit of measure used by the ATC to report the QNH value (atmospheric pressure) to the pilot for the proper altimeter setting: hectopascal (hPa), inches of mercury (inHg) or both. | * '''QNH reported in''' ''(possible values: hPa, inHg, hPa and inHg)'' - Sets the unit of measure used by the ATC to report the QNH value (atmospheric pressure) to the pilot for the proper altimeter setting: hectopascal (hPa), inches of mercury (inHg) or both. | ||
* '''Aircraft type''' ''(possible values: Auto, Small single engine, Small multi engine, Executive turboprop/jet, Business jet, Airline jet, Large/military jet, Special military)'' - Defines the rules and settings used by the ATC and according to the aircraft type. In particular, it changes the parameters used in the assisted approach procedure - such as altitude, distance and speed - initial altitude after take off and cruising altitude. When set to "Auto" Red Griffin ATC will try to automatically detect the aircraft type according to the values set in <code>/sim/tags</code>. In case it was not possible to detect the aircraft types, including the case the aircraft in use has no tags defined, Red Griffin ATC will warn the user to properly choose the aircraft type. In case the user does not set an aircraft type, Red Griffin ATC will consider the aircraft as a "Small single engine" and set operational parameters accordingly. | * '''Aircraft type''' ''(possible values: Auto, Small single engine, Small multi engine, Executive turboprop/jet, Business jet, Airline jet, Large/military jet, Special military)'' - Defines the rules and settings used by the ATC and according to the aircraft type.
