Hello there!

I have a strange problem.

for example:

I created a flight from israel to turkey.
When i reached turkey(LARNACA), I crashed while i was at 3000 feet.
The elevation of LARNACA is +3100
What do i have to do with this??
Do i have to change my altimeter settings??

I know there are places with different levels in the world.
So, how do i have to set my altimeter??

please help

Anytime you're approaching an airport to land at, you should tune in the ATIS frequency of it. You can find this by going into Map View, and clicking on the airport, I think. This will give you a load of information, including the altimeter setting.

Failing that, press B, and it'll do it automatically.... ;)
