Bouncing at the ramp

[EHM-1749 Hector]

This morning I was ready to go from ESSA to LPPT for my promoting flight to ATP but when I was ready for pushback and after selecting the spot view, the plane started to bounce and the FS reported a crash. Luckily the FLogger had not started yet as the engines were still not running.
I have read in this forum of similar problems when taxiing but never when still parked and the acft not moving at all.
I retried a couple more of times but the same thing happened.
So I decided to quit for the day a wait for my promotion by tomorrow if I can manage to solve this problem.
I have been in ESSA before and never faced this situation before.
If somebody can give me a tip, I will appreciate it very much.
Regards,

Hector, please try another gate at ESSA, or another scenery. It can be a scenery bug. What you said is weird, so I could only guess.

Good luck

I ahve tried the same thing. But I don't think it was with one of our aircrafts. I my cases it has been because badly made config files, where it was a must that the aircraft was overloaded. If you removed that weight so the aircraft no longer was overloaded. Then it started bouncing totally out of control. But I don't think this is the case here. I just want you to know you are not the only that have tried this.

Hector, Which plane were you using as I have had this with the Dash 8 before now. As Karsten said, it is something to do with the config for the aircraft. (I never cured it either sorry)

If you can help it, do not change view while on the ground. When changing view, this causes a scenery reload in FS. The elevation data of the airport is reloaded, and this can cause a change of the level of the ground.

If you can manage, stick to one view while on the ground (cockpit view).

Some data in the aircraft.cfg file is editable concerning contact points. I've had a go at this but never got it to work properly.

Funnily enough, I had this during my attempt at S022 this morning before I started the engines. I like to flick around the views before I go through the pre-start checklist (waiting for FSP to get all the sims on board) as it's an easy way to preload a fair amount of scenery (spot view and 360 slowly round the plane until the jerking stops...)

Every time I went back to V-Cockpit view, the plane would spend a second or two bouncing up and down.

Didn't happen just now though, when I really flew S022...

Thanks to all of you for your comments.
I finally got the bouncing stopped when I switched from Gate 5 to Gate 6.
As a comment, the main fact that caused for me to abort the flight on Saturday was the crazy behaviour of the AOA parameter in the FLogger.
When you load the FL this parameter is normally a fixed 1 but that day it was going in a very fast fashion from -170 to +160 or something.
It could be a good signal that something is wrong there.
Agains, thanks a lot.
See you up in the air.
