Too high nose of aircrafts

<< < (2/3) > >>

EHM-1001 Robert:
I guess it depends on the panel you use. Anyway I had the same problem in the past. Its known that the 767 has a quite bad dynamic model, but it is under improvement. If you are flying at not cruise speed try to apply some flaps and that will push the nose down a little.

EHM-0641 Rico:
I have a different panel


Robert:
Wouldn't that break the aircrafts aerodynamic profile, creating much more drag, and thereby causing a greater fuel usage ..??

EHM-0933 Richard:
I know thia may seem quite obvious but is the trim set correctly? Also, sometimes, if you have saved a previous flight wit the autopilot on, it will turn the autopilot on for the next flight, maybe that is the problem? Good luck!

I had something like this a couple of weeks back with a Boeing 767-something.
It climbed slow, and when nearing the cruise altitude (only FL250), I had the nose of the plane pitched up arround the 10 degrees (and man did I loose some speed). The problem was too much weight. So maybe that's the problem, try to lessen the fuel load, it may help.

yeah sorry about that.. I finished the new 767 with all new flight dynamics but no one put it online yet :{

EHM-1001 Robert:
You are right Rico, it is not the good solution (applying flaps) at cruise level and cruise speed. But it can be useful near the ground when manouvering. You can see much more from the outside too.
