Actually, you don't need to let out the Pax: it's the parking brake which triggers the end of flight.

i might sound really stupid here, but how exactly do you operate an IFR landing!? I usually take off auto - pilot when i am approx 7
miles away from the runway.... for a visual landing. this goes right 95% of the time, sometimes i have a hard landing although most
times i get extra points for a smooth touch-down. occasionally as stated before, the plane goes crazy after i turn off the auto-pilot, so i am
quite interested in how it works...

Thanx in adavance

Well using an IFR landing is a much more interesting and fun way than VFR. The ATC controller will basically direct you to the aiport,and
line you up with the runway. We use something called ILS (Instrument Landing System for you new people) to land the aircraft. Basically
you type in the Frequency of the runway into your NAV1 settings and activate it. You then activate Autopilot with Altitude Hold on, and APP
(approach hold). Approach hold will simply find a descent (also called a glidescope) down to the runway. So APP will soon disable the
Autopilot and fly down towards the runway. However, you can disable the ILS just before touchdown, so you disable AP to actually land the
plane itself. Its kind of confusing for the first time, but If you need any more help message me.

Hope the description is OK!

Thanks,
Alex

I keep getting altimeter error telling to press B.

[gronji2004]

Do it then! The altimeter should be 2992 in good weather.

I got penalyt. but ok maybe i forgot teh parking break dunno, thought it was the door, i was in a hurry. like i told.

visual approach: there are some nice lights at the side of the rwy, red you are too low, white y<ou are too hight, 2 red 2 whit-> perfect on
glide.
for the course you have the gps (we are modern)

Flying A 15 min flight in FSX demo, then doing the airline challenge, and 100 ft from runway, POP!


Your 30 min. time limit has expired.

FSX demo will now shut down.

Got one more
When you get penalized for flying 63kts above 250 under 10.000 ft!!

Having to play FSX without FS Passengers ... its a nightmare!

This happened on a POSKY 747-100 (FS2002 only) in FS2004. I don't fly it on FsPassengers anymore because of this:

Landing configuration, and touchdown! Then, when i gently put the nose gear on the runway, IT COLLAPES. So my plane ends up
scrapping the nose the whole way down the runway. whats weird is that nobody notices except me. Then once the plane stops it wont
move even with full power. Then the plane bounces and then crashed. about 200 died.

Another time, with the same airplane, I landed and accidentally hit my left wing on the ground and ended up scrapping my engines and
failing them. again, nobody notices except me. Everybody leaves the plane like normal. FsPassengers doesnt even know that I
scrapped 2 engines.

Haha

happened to me in real life.

I thought we were going to Chios, Greece. During pushback I was walking trough the cabin and the purser speeched: Welcome aboard this Transavia flight
to Chania (Crete, Greece)! I was like: 'huh?....what?"
