ENGINE FAILURE AT V1

Featured Replies

hi all.. was about to take off at LFPG when suddenly, right afrer "V1" callout I get "Engine Failure" and both engines and my electrical and hydralic systems are all shut down! I cursed a little and reset the situation and saved just before TO. same thing again! Right after "V1", FAILURE! The third time I managed the throttle manually (without TO/GA) and I got her up.. I got "80", "V1" and "ROTATE" callouts but no "V2"! Well.. I am just clueless.. All procedures and checklists were all done properly. Any ideas?

JohanThere is a known issue - and this sounds very much like it. If you reset a flight in FS9, the autopilot in the 737NG is not properly reset. If you look carefully, you can see that CWS P is annunicated at the point of rotation and the engines spool down in an attempt to maintain the selected speed - leading to a crash.There is an easy work around - pull the disconnect bar momentarily as part of every preflight. This seems to properly reset the autopilot.Hope this helps

... actually, I'm not sure if this was addressed as Mats has suggested. Maybe it was. PMDG?
