hello

i activatrd service failure mode, an flew with this almost 60 houres; and is didnt see any failure' is this normal ?

for the record ehen i finish flghit i save FSX FLT with NGX and next time i countinue from last position (Load FSX FLT)

thanks

I think this is normal. In the Service based failures failures will occoure according to real 737NG maintenance reports. And you can be pretty sure that nothing will happen to a brand new airplane! Fly another 50.000 hours and some events will be more likly :P

 

 

When you want more failures to happen then I beleave there's an option in which you can set a value of failures which will happen in some time. For example 1 failure every 20 hours.

No failures in 60 hours? God I HOPE that's normal! :)

 

Serviced based failures I don't think mean that something is going to happen anywhere in that service interval, it just means that you've turned on the POSSIBILITY that something in the service list MIGHT go wrong :) the other choice being the jet is immune to failures.

 

If the simulation is modelled accurately, even with service based failures on, you might never see a problem bigger than a burned out light bulb in 1,000 hours of flying, and if you had thousands of people flying the sim on different computers, you might only see a catastrophic engine failure or structural failure at the same interval you see such things in the real world on the news...

 

Of course if catastophic failures are your thing :) just schedule one via the failures page or set failure interval to something really short :)

 

 

ok, so to simulate unplanned failure in NGX the best way is to use the random option?
