Is this normal? - Overrated - 11-06-2006

I was flying from KSFO to KLAX in a DC-3. The flight was fine, with no problems. 90 minutes after taking off, I was preparing to land at
KLAX, when my landing gear did not deploy properly. Only one wheel was down. I remembered hearing to make a slow landing to shake
the gear, which I was doing. However, when I landed, it showed me braking (which I did not do, and DC-3s do not have autobrakes), and
then my plane took off again very fast, did a few barrell rolls, stalled, and crashed at over -9000 feet a minute. Everyone died. Is there
some kind of problem with my game, or is that normal?

I would post the flightlog, but I forgot to copy it, and "accidentally" clicked the do not register button. :P

The landing gear failure may be caused by fsp, it rarely occurs unless you have set the failure percentage to a certain amount. I'm not sure why it
would brake by itself, but the rolling may be due to having one gear down causing improper balance of the aircraft.

My failure percentage is 5%. I know it was cased by FSP, but I am just a little surprised that my plane made such unrealistic moves after
that.

does the plane have autothrottle?

On a DC3? It doesn't really have an autopilot as such.

If you have yet to view another flight log, then it should be viewable if you go into the FsPassengers folder in the FS9 folder and click on
the View_last_log doc, or somthing like that

By the time I saw the post about the flight log, I had already redid that flight.

Also, something weird happened last night. I was flying my DC-3, and even though I was climbing, I crashed into a mountain at 4000 feet. The thing is,
when I redid the flight in the daytime, I saw that the mountains were not even that high. In addition to that, I remember FSPassengers saying that I
crashed at an altitude of 147 feet or something similar. I know I was climbing at the time, because even the flightlog said I was going over 1000
feet/min.

Very odd.
