> **Limitation**: This plugin uses the altitude reported by the pilot clients. Depending on the pilot's weather settings and the flight simulator they are using, the height displayed in the ILS Window may not match what the pilot sees ([more info](https://forums.flightsimulator.com/t/vatsim-ivao-pilotedge-users-be-aware-of-an-important-bug/426142)).

> The plugin applies cold temperature correction to improve aircraft height accuracy. This is necessary for newer flight simulators with advanced atmospheric models ([more info](https://forums.flightsimulator.com/t/vatsim-ivao-pilotedge-users-be-aware-of-an-important-bug/426142)). For pilots using older simulators or custom weather settings, the displayed height may be slightly different from what is shown in the simulator.
