I declared a false emergency? - Overrated - 21-06-2006
I was flying in my DC-3, and I heard a boom. The crew said that they could not serve food/drink in these conditions, so I thought that it was some
kind of failure. I decended quickly, and landed at the nearest possible airport. FSPassengers then tells me I declared a false emergency. Any idea
what happened?

I don't know where the 'boom' came from but usually crew cannot serve during severe turbulence or when you're for example climbing too fast ( i
believe more than 2600 ft/m)
Sorry, but no idea about the boom

what was the weather like? i've never had this but could i possibly be lightenning or thunder and then have turbalence
just a guess
Re: I declared a false emergency? - Overrated - 23-06-2006
When the problem occured, the skies were just partly cloudy...however, on approach to the airport, there was thunder, since the sky suddenly got ugly,
unrealistically, I might add.
Guess that was it. Still not quite sure why my passengers got scared after the boom.

It might have been the thunder!
