Parking brakes???

Recommended Posts

Guest Albatross7107

SO I loaded up the default 737 and was about to start a flight when I remembered there was something on TV that I wanted to watch. SO I got up and left the sim run.Come back 1.5hrs later and the plane is in the terminal... :(Well, half in / half out. Throttles were at idle, parking brake set, none the less I seemed to have creeped forward about a plane length in an hour and a half.Maybe I need to have a chat with the mechanics? x(

If you cant afford payware you can still find much better freeware aircraft in the Avsim library. Anyway why did you leave the engines running?Rob

Common problem. Payware aircraft do it too (like PMDG). I think it's a FS thing.

LVLD did that to me too. I had my parking spot pretty close to the terminal, went away for a sec and when I can back I was inside of it.scott s..

Try and press F1 to truly idle them. The default 737 shouldn't have major kreeping issues after that. As for Posky, that's a whole nother story.

I've heard of many people having this issue, and i have come across it once, and all i did was as stated above make sure to press F1 to make sure the throttles are in idle, if flying a turboprop make sure the conditioner lever or ers are at the lowest spot possible without killing the engines.Seems to work for me

AFAIK even with Avionics, lights, et. al. switched off, you'll still drain the battery.
