Strange anomaly

Recommended Posts

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.

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.
