Title: Plane Suspended in Air
Post by: davidbr22 on May 01, 2017, 09:42:47 pm
Hi:
I ran across this by accident when I had a KLAX flight as the default flight. When I started FSX and was in the startup screen, if I have any flight using your KLAX scenery as the default flight and change location to PHNL (your scenery) --- the plane is in the air over the parking spot.  If I do the same thing except using default scenery, it does not happen.  If I load the default flight using KLAX default scenery, change location to PHNL, it does not happen. It only happens from the startup screen and using klax scenery in the default flight and I change location to PHNL.  If I do the same thing except change location to your KJFK, it does not happen. This only happens when I change location from the startup screen. If I load a flight then change location, it does not happen. Any ideas ?
Dave

This issue has been discussed several times on the forum, see this post a few days agao:

As explained in that thread, it's not a problem of the scenery, but something that sometimes happens when you go to a scenery with a different ground altitude than the one you started with, it can happen everywhere, even with default sceneries, depending where you start and where you go.

The usual fix, is to go into Slew mode, and press one of the arrow key, just enough to move a tiny bit, which will be enough for the correct altitude to settle in, then exit Slew mode.
