Strange anomaly

Featured Replies

I will repeat this post as it was wiped out when the forum server was rebooted.

 

I was taking long suffering Greg and the crabby flight nurse into Elmendorf AFB with the C-46 when this anomaly popped up right in front of us on the landing approach. We passed right through it and landed with no further incidents. After unloading poor old Greg I pulled the Carbon Cub out of the hanger and it was still there so I took off to investigate. I can only think that it must be the space elevator to low earth orbit that I have heard so much about. The top just disappeared into the stratosphere. I exited the game and restarted Flight and It was of course gone.

I've seen similar. The seem to originate from runway markers.

Yep, we reported this and similar bugs months ago.

Does it register as a crash if you run into it?

No. It's just a graphics anomaly. You might seem similar things in FS9 or FSX.

Life in a virtual world I guess. Although I never ran into one, it is interesting to see that.

I've heard of this before, but have never seen it. Seems like something similar was seen at Anchorage.

 

I wonder if this has to do with specific aircraft, or will happen with any of them.

Thank you.

Well I tried it with both the C-46 and the Carbon Cub and it was still there.

Well there is a Jack And The Beanstalk movie coming out.......
