Runway at LIRQ and Dash8

(1/3) > >>

EHM-1570 Bruce:
I have just tried to fly the Dash 8-400  out of Florence LIRQ, however the nose gear starts to bounce then collapses after a few hundred feet, I have tried several times from either end of the runway with the same result. I have found out what the problem is, it is due to the runway surface which is Macadam and the Dash 8 does not like Macadam. I have used AFCAD to change the surface to Concrete and now the Dash 8 takes off fine. Hope this helps a few pilots who fly into Florence, as the gear will also collapse on landing if the runway surface is not changed.

EHM-1343 Jonathan:
Same happens in LFBD and LOWI....

EHM-1633 José:
I think that the problem remains in the aircraft cfg file of the dash 8. Because it hapened to me the same in an non-macadam runway, even at slow speed. :'( I´m not expert in editing cfg files, but i´m sure that in EHM there are people who know how to fix that problem. :%

EHM-1001 Robert:
Problem is under solving ;) Thx for the info anyway.

EHM-1633 José:
Right, nice to hear that Robert. Please inform when the aircraft is OK;)
