This is really fun to do...a fun change from 35,000 ft. LNAV/VNAV engaged. What I usually do is start someplace with water near the field(Friday Harbor). After start up, I put 4% of fuel in the tanks, no payload, take off, and just run full power till the fuel cuts off. But I don't maintain anything above 200 feet, when doing this... . After shutdown, just glide her into the water as smooth as possible...and hope that the crazy FSX crash detection system doesn't catch you! Although you can come to a full stop.Another meaningless post,

Thanks Sully. :-)

Make sure you rinse all the saltwater off before you put her back in the garage.

It doesn't sound meaningless to me, that could exploit some weaknesses or it could open the door to an emergency ditching scenario :(

Ironic that this thread pops up today.I have actually been spending the last few hours ditching this bird. It all works well untill your airspeed reaches zero then crash.I have been digging into various CFG flies in fsx attempting to solve this but so far no luck. The closest I have come is that the aircraft will bounce about 100ft into the air when you hit a speed of 0. I will keep trying and see what I can come up with, wish me luck

Well, I found that when making a rather sharp corner whyle in taxi with reasanable speed you can see in an outside view the whole plane sliding over the asphalt instead of making a turn.But let's just injoy the great sim pmdg made for us and still are working hard on.Maikel Rozemeijer.

This might be a dumb answer, but couldn't you just add contact points somewhere?
