Need your help guys...an urgent problem with the landing gear

Featured Replies

Currently enroute ESSA-EIDW participating in an online event and noticed after takeoff my right hand side main landing gear was not retracted after takeoff and commanding Gear Up.

 

No failure was announced by the FO and looking in the FMC under the failures section it says I have no active failures but still I see the right hand main landing gear in it's down position. Below are a couple of screenshots showing my current situation.

 

Trying to figure out what happened and if it was caused the FS2Crew or the NGX or if it's some weird kind of FSX problem, never seen this before.

 

Any help greatly appreciated!

Already tried that several times I'm afraid.

 

Very weird problem this and never seen it before but guess I should be happy in a way since it makes the flight even more realistic...I can only hope the gear will not collapse when landing in Dublin... :Nail Biting:

Indeed very strange and the FO said 'Lights out' after raising the gear which in fact wasn't true seen in the screenshot.

 

When I landed in Dublin the right side of the main gear did collapse but fortunately I was able to have the aircraft come to a stop without a real crash and I think all passengers were able to get off using their own legs :wink:

I had the  same issue  as you  wasn't using  fscrew2  when it happened  all I did was lower  the  landing  gear  and returned  back to the airport

OK, seems I'm not the only one who have seen this because received some other input as well over in the thread I created in the NGX forum.

 

What I would like to know is if this failure indeed is a "real" PMDG NGX failure and if so why the failures menu in the FMC reported no active failures. Hopefully someone from PMDG will be able to answer that question.
