...data entry and operation is randomized. Altitude is not always the second entry, values have to be entered including their units of measurement.
Without wanting to sound overly blunt, I sincerely hope you're joking - mistaken FMS entries have caused far too many hull losses and near-misses over the years - the Cali 757, and the Indian and Air Inter A320s just for starters!
