Hello
I was wondering about the 777 Optimum, Recommended and Step Climb Levels. I understand the Optimum is min trip cost when in Econ and that Recommended looks at winds. How come then one will sometimes see it recommending say FL320 now but with a 2000ft step climb it only wants to climb in say 100 miles or something.
I would've thought when the Recommended changed to say FL320 that it would coincide with the Step climb?
Any ideas?
