FS2004 commercial checkride: Where'd she go?

Featured Replies

I nearly completed the commercial checkride in FS2004. I successfully completed everything up to the point where the engine's supposed to fail - cruising along at just under 170 knots, heading 280, 6500 feet, trimmed and level, waiting for the engine to fail. Knowing what's coming up, I'm keeping an eye on Paine... as I pass it and fly 20-30 miles away. The lady doing the check part of the checkride never showed up to kill the engine or tell me what a good emergency landing I made. I waited until I was well past where I could get back to Paine in a glide.Has anyone else encountered this? I encountered something similar in one of the early lessons, but just figured the lesson had a bug and went on to the next lesson. But I want to be able to complete the checkride and get the certificate. I'm so close!Any information on how to avoid/overcome this problem on a subsequent attempt is appreciated.
