HELP

Archived from groups: alt.games.microsoft.flight-sim (More info?)

I had ones the same problem, I think it is due to over rotating. The tail
tuch the ground and got on fire. I have tryed to solve it with an emergency
landing but that did not work. The only solution I found was to reset the
flight and start again. Carefully!

Hmm, it may help just reloading the aircraft being on ground again.
I think it works even in midair... ;-)

Cancel IFR return to either your port of origin(fif you are real close to
it) or make and emergency landing at the nearest airport that has a long
enough runway to support a 747, and remember to simulate a fuel dumping(alt
A, F(then reduce your fuel levels)), just get her down ASAP

Hi Cameron

Further to the over-rotating reply, are you trying to engage the
auto-pilot too early? I made this mistake when I first started using
FS2002 and found that my aircraft had trouble lifting off the ground.

You should fly the first short part of your flight manually, or so I
understand.

I should mention that I very rarely fly "heavies".

Cheers
James

Mmm sounds nasty... but don't forget that firing the aircraft
fire-extinguishers could play hell with the inside of your computer!
