strange behavior this morning...

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

Hello,

I have been lurking in this group for some time. (about a year)
Anyways, I was taking a short flight from KPSP to KLAX this morning in
the Baron 58 and everything was fine until I passed over the PDZ VOR
and then the plane suddenly dived at a rate greater than 2000 FPM. I
have seen this behavior before, but just this morning put 2 and 2
together and figured that maybe it has to do with flying over a VOR.

Has anyone seen this behavior before, and if so, is there a fix? I am
running fs 9.1.

thx,

Steve

Check your flightplan - navlog to see if there is a problem with altitude.
Do you have a drastically reduced altitude for your next VOR or waypoint?
Are you flying using autopilot?

Oh God! You must know ALL our secrets by now. When is the money demand
coming through the post?

Beech

He stated on one of his posts that he didn't have autopilot engaged as it
was a suggestion I had.
Strange world the FS World. Glad Microsoft don't control the real skies or
we would need
a patch along with our airline tickets so things go smoothly.
