I think I'm having a very bad night tonight. About an hour ago, I had a CTD in my PMDG 747-400 while descending for Dubai, after flying for over 5 hours from Frankfurt. Now I've encountered another fun error. I figured I'd fly my MD-11 from Amsterdam to Saint Maarten, and when I pulled up the load manager, I saw some fun ZFWCG's and TOCG's.

 

Here's a screenshot of what kind of amazing measures the MD-11 Load Manager gave me:

The funny thing is, in the cargo version the CG's are perfectly normal. But in the passenger variant, the CG's are a little bit off.

 

Any ideas?

Hi Nathan,

 

I see FSX is not connected.

 

Have you tried opening it up with the MD11 loaded in FSX?

 

Kind regards

Greg, thanks for the reply.

 

I tried getting in the MD-11 passenger version in FSX. Then I loaded up the manager. The CG's were still out of whack. I figured that if maybe I loaded the passengers onto the plane anyways it might fix it. The Load Manager told me the CG's were bad and asked if I still wanted to load the payload. I pressed yes, and the aircraft started spinning in circles on the ground exceeding 300 knots.

 

I'm not sure why happened to my MD-11, but I think I'll reinstall.

Hi Nathan,

 

Very weird, especially when the Freight model is working.

 

I would go for the reinstall too, let me know how it goes! :rolleyes:

 

Thanks

Yes, the reinstall fixed it. I flew my 8 hour route from Hong Kong to FlyTampa Dubai with no problems.

Great! Glad it worked!

Something corrupted the values in aircraft.cfg.
