I have noticed that when Im flying above 18k the nose on the airplanes begins to pitch up. Eventually the planes stall. I cant fly above 18000 feet. Is there a fix other than reinstalling FSX?

Well, judging by your last pirep: You are flying WAY too slow, AND your aircraft was WAY overweight.

Usually when someone flies all their flights direct GPS... it's most certainly a pilot problem.. not FSX.

Chris, fly 250 knots below 10,000 feet. Once you climb higher lower the nose to about 1000 feet per minute vertical speed and speed up to 300 knots. Once at 300 knots pitch the nose up to maintain that speed all the way to 24,000. If you are heavy, you will climb slow, this is normal. Once you are above 24,000 feet adjust your pitch to stay at mach .78 until you reach your cruise altitude. Again, if you are really heavy you will climb slowly.

Hope this helps some.
