RVSM Tag indicator Question

Hello,

 

On the Eurocat TAG when the aircraft is RVSM capable a W is appearing on the top left part of the TAG.

 

My question, does the pilot need to put a specific indicattion somewhere in his FP in order this to appear? Yesterday I had two ATR72 one was showing the W the other not. I made some test myself using FSINN and although I had put the suffix W at the FSINN aircraft type the controller which was also using eurocat didn't see it on the TAG.

 

I am thinking that maybe only SB3 users appear with W...

The W means the aircraft IS NOT equipped for RVSM. The W should not appear when flightplan contains W.

 

I finally found a list of the codes:

It should appear, does for me, whenever someone doesn't have a code.
