Randomly descends and looses air speed or stalls

Recommended Posts

Guest BewareOfButtlice

Hello,Not sure why this is happening but sometimes ill be able to do a flight perfectly without anything happening. Others, i will be at fl390 or fl320 exc and i will randomly either stall or descend then slow WAY down... I usually use a cost index of 100-150 when i fly and get no FMC messages during the flights. The plane also fights to stay at the altitude it descends to, the nose is pointing up 10 on the attitude indicator. This time it did it to me when i was on a short flight from Seattle to San Francisco. I was at 390 and then it descended to 313 and slowed down to about 170kts or somewhere around there. Im not sure if the plane stalled or not, i was making some food in the kitchen then came back and that's where i was.Something im doing wrong? O_o

I saw somewhere in this forum where some folks were experiencing the same behavior when they are you're using the internal FS weather engine with the "Disable turbulence and thermal effects on aircraft" (- on the Weather tab in option) NOT checked. Give it a try and see if it helps.Bob

FS real-weather is weird. It appears the atmosphere disappears sometimes!Best regards,Robin.
