Fokker 70 Issues

(1/2) > >>

EHM-1671 Ben:
Hi there guys,

Rico's been having some problems with the Fokker 70 on approach, which I will let him explain the problem further in detail as he will be more accurate than I, but in short the airplane has suddenly nose-dipped down while on finals. Has anyone else experienced this problem? Could anyone shed some light on this?

Thanks!

EHM-1944 Jaap:
Strange problem
I made 200+ flights with the F70 (and always with real weather)
and never experienced this problem.

EHM-1695 Hélio:
Nose-dipped down? Strange... I thought the problem with F70 was, in fact, too much flare on final!:o

EHM-2097 Andrei:
Never happened to me so I will only shed more darkness on this matter...

I noticed that the flights when Rico had problems were done as ProPilot. I recall there were rumors in the forum about FlightLogger "doing something" to the aircraft, though technically this has no reason to happen. And the respective forum threads remained somehow conclusionless.

I did flights both "normal" and "Propilot" with the F70 and never had such problems (it's still my #1 favorite in the fleet), but I suggest that further posters who would confirm the problem indicate whether it was during Propilot flights.

Cheers
Andrei

EHM-1703 Philip:
Rico is using FS9 isn't he? I know I tried this aircraft with FSX and it has extensive issues that only the model makers can only correct.
